Without thinking, this was the line I chose:
I am not very good with lyrics, preferring to listen to the beat and the melody. But some of the lines in Black (written by Eddie Vedder) are incredibly beautiful.
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clayWere laid spread out before me as her body once didAll five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sunNow the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn, oohAnd all I taught her was everythingOoh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the cloudsOf what was everythingOh, the pictures have all been washed in blackTattooed everything
I take a walk outside, I’m surrounded by some kids at playI can feel their laughter, so why do I searOh and twisted thoughts that spin ’round my headI’m spinning, oh I’m spinning, how quick the sun can drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glassOf what was everythingAll the pictures have all been washed in blackTattooed everything
All the love gone bad turned my world to blackTattooed all I see, all that I am, all I’ll be yeahOh oh ooh
I know someday you’ll have a beautiful lifeI know you’ll be a star in somebody else’s sky, but whyWhy, why can’t it be, oh can’t it be mine?Ooh, ah yeah, ah ooh
