Pearl Jam - Black

Sheets of empty canvas
untouched sheets of clay
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 turns

And all I told her was everything

I know she gave me
all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
chafe beneath the clouds
of what was everything
All 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 I'm twisting 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 be

I know some day
you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a sun
In somebody else's sky
but why why why
can't it be can't it be mine

Sheets of empty canvas
untouched sheets of clay
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 turns

And all I told her was everything

I know she gave me
all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
chafe beneath the clouds
of what was everything
All 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 I'm twisting 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 be

I know some day
you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a sun
In somebody else's sky
but why why why
can't it be can't it be mine

Eddie Vedder's genius voice, plus the lyrics, plus the theme of the song and Pearl Jam is in all of its glory. One of their greatest songs.
