hurt by johnny cash
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
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 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
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 would keep myself
I would find a way

wow that's such a good song, but it's kinda depressing too, GO JOHNNY CASH!!!! (and i got first post woot!) still prayin for ya! :)
I think it's actually a cover he did of a Nine Inch Nails song. Correct me if I'm wrong.
He did change a couple words (ie. the "dirty" words Trent Reznor used in the original).
Great song though. Love it.
