black…………songs for you

Sheets of empty canvas
untouched sheets of clay
Her legs 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    

all I know I taught her was... everything
all I know she gave all... that she wore

And my bitter hands
Shake beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tatooed everything.

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So what can I say

all my twisted thoughts they spin round my head (I'm spinnin')
I'm spinning how quick the sun can drop away
And my bitter hands
hit on broken glass     
of what was everything

All my pictures have all been washed in black
Tatooed everything
All my love gone bad
turned my world to black
tatooed all I see

All that I am
All that I'll be

I know some day you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a sun,
In somebody elses sky,

why can't it be, can't it be in mine?
