And now my bitter hands Of what was everything All been washed in black Tattooed everything Sheets of empty canvas Untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me As her body once did

If I ruled the world Still livin' for today, in these last days and times If I ruled the world, imagine that I'd free all my sons, I love 'em love 'em baby Black diamonds and pearls Could it be, if you could be mine we'd both shine We'll walk right up to

I'd rather be I'd rather be with an animal I'd rather be with One, two, three, four, five against one Said one, two, three, four, five against one Five, five, five, five, five against one Five, five, five against one Torture from you to me, yeah Abducted

spin the black circle spin the black, spin the black Spin the black circle See this needle Oh see my hand Drop, drop, dropping it down oh so gently

Black pearl Mother come pick me up I feel I've lost all that I knew In this forest full of lies You're all that's ringing true Oh, by my world Forever my world Gather all that's left Place my fears up on this shelf
