Black (feat. Cortnie Frazier)

Sheets of empty canvas
Under sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me
As her body once did

Her all five horizons
Revolved around the side
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 was

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
Oh, I can feel their laughter
So why do I sear?

Ooh, 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 that I'll be
All I'll be

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky
Why? Why? why can't it be?
Can't it be mine?
Mine
