Why go home? (7x) Whoa... BLACK Hey...oooh... 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 Ooh, and all I taught her was everything Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds 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 Oh, 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 ever be...yeah... Uh huh...uh huh...ooh... 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, why can't it be mine JEREMY At home, drawing pictures of mountain tops with him on top Lemin yellow sun, arms raised in a V And the dead lay in pools of maroon below Daddy didn't give attention Oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care King Jeremy the wicked...oh, ruled his world... Jeremy spoke in class today... (2x) Clearly I remember pickin' on the boy Seemed a harmless little fuck Ooh, but we unleashed a lion... Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast... How can I forget? And he hit me with a surprise left My jaw left hurtin'...ooh, dropped wide open Just like the day...oh, like the day I heard Daddy didn't give affection, no... And the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear King Jeremy the wicked...oh, ruled his world Jeremy spoke in class today... (3x) Woo... (14x) Try to forget this...try to forget this... Try to erase this...try to erase this... >From the blackboard... Jeremy spoke in class today... (2x) Jeremy spoke in, spoke in... (2x) Jeremy spoke in class today... Woo...

You know something's left And we're all allowed To dream of the next Oh, ohh the next, time we touch... Oooh... (4x) You don't have to stray Tho oceans away Waves roll in my thoughts Hold tight the ring... The sea will rise... Please stand by the shore... Oh, oh, oh, I will be... I will be there once more...
