Heyoooh
Sheets of empty canvas,
Untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me
As her body once did
All five horizons
Revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed
Has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
Chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have
All been washed in black,
Tattooed everything
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter,
So why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin
Round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures have
All been washed in black,
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see,
All that I am,
All I'll beyeah
Uh huhuh huhooh
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky,
But why why why can't it be, Why can't it be
Mine
