Black - PEARL JAM

Hey-hey-hey


Yeah-ah

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

Mmm, oh, 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 had 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?


Mmm, oh, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head

I'm spinning, oh-oh, I'm spinning

How quick the Sun can drop away


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-yeah

Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh


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, oh, can't it be mine?

Ooh, ah, yeah


Ah, ooh-ooh

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (oh, oh-yeah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah, yeah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah, yeah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (yeah, ah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (yeah-yeah-yeah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ooh-ooh)

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh
