Johnny Cash Hurt Lyrics

Hurt Lyrics

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 thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken
thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stain of time
The feeling
disappears
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
