I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?
And twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
How quick the sun can, drop away
All the pictures had
All the love gone bad, turned my world to black
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
All been washed in black, tattooed everything
Of what was everything

And now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds
I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be, yeah
All five horizons revolved around her soul, as the earth to the sun

All been washed in black, tattooed everything
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
All the pictures had
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?

Of what was everything
