Black by Pearl Jam

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

All five horizons (1)________________ 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

And now my (2)____________ (3)__________ chafe (4)______________ the clouds
Of what was everything
(Oh) the pictures have all been (5)____________ in black
Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel (6)__________ laughter
So why do I sear?
(Oh) and twisted (7)________________ that spin
Round my head
I'm spinning
(Oh) I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away
And now my (8)____________ hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything?
All the pictures (9)________ 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...

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
