I know it's about Walt Whitman's poem, titled the same name (it is a very beautiful poem, for the record), but I just gotta say this:
"All that great heart lying still in a silent suffering
Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
What is left for encore is the same old dead boy's song
Sung in silence"
To me, that means someone with a "great heart" is hurt emotional, but doesn't say anything ("silent suffering") and fakes a smile until it's over, and then just pours everything out without anyone knowing ("sung in silence")
Also, Piano black=Beautiful Emptiness. Pianos generally represent beauty and black generally represents emptiness, so, beautiful emptiness.
