Johnny Cash - 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,

[Chorus]

What have I become,

My sweetest friend,

Everyone I know,

Goes away in the end,

And you could have it all,

My empire of dirt,

I will let you down,

I will make you hurt,

I wear this crown of thorns,

Upon my liars 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,

[Chorus]

And 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 will keep myself,

I would find a way,
