    Black Lyrics – Pearl Jam

    [Intro]
    Hey, hey, yeah, uh

    [Verse 1]
    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

    [Pre-Chorus 1]
    Mm, and all I taught her was everything
    Mm, I know she gave me all that she wore

    [Chorus 1]
    And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
    Of what was everything
    Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black
    Tattooed everything

    [Verse 2]
    I take a walk outside, I’m surrounded by some kids at play
    I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
    [Pre-Chorus 2]
    Mm, and twisted thoughts that spin ’round my head
    I’m spinning, oh, I’m spinning, how quick the sun can drop away

    [Chorus 2]
    And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
    Of what was everything
    All the pictures have all been washed in black
    Tattooed everything

    [Post-Chorus]
    All the love gone bad turned my world to black
    Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I’ll be, yeah
    Mm, mhm, oooh

    [Outro]
    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, ah, ooh

    [Guitar Solo with Vocalizations]
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, ooh ooh ooh
    Doodoo-doo-doo-doodoodoo, ooh
