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
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 that 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

I will let you down. I will make you hurt
I will let you down. I will make you... I will make you hurt
