Black - Live MTV Unplugged

Hey, uh

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

And all I taught her was everything

How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass

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

I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?

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

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?

No, yeah, yeah, no

We, we belong, we belong together, together

We, we belong, we belong together
