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

Oh, and all I taught her was everything

Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore

Of what was everything

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, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head, I'm spinning, oh

I'm spinning, how quick the sun can drop away

Of what was everything

Tattooed everything

All that I'll be

Yeah Uh huh Uh huh Uh

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, aah ooh
