I don't know what this says about my mind today. Inspired by strange dreams,
late dinner, haunting music on my mind, loved ones who have passed on...
I'm sure some combination of the above. Johnny Cash's version of this well
written song was the last thing I listened to on my way home. His voice
brings a raw haunting emotion to this song that penetrates your very soul.
NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS
"Hurt"
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
