Black (live) Lyrics - Pearl Jam

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 reaches 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 

All the pictures have 

All been washed in black 

Tattooed everything

NEW SONG: Ed Sheeran - 'BLOW' Lyrics ft. Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars 

I take a walk outside 

I'm surrounded by some kids at play 

I can feel their laughter 

So why do I sear? 

Mm, 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 be, yeah 

Photos 

Uh-huh 

Uh-huh 

Woo 

I know that 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? 

Ah, yeah 

Uh, woo-hoo
