Hurt

I hurt myself today,

to see if I still feel,

I focus on the pain,

the only thing thats 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 liars chair,

full of broken thoughts,

I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time,

the feelings dissapear,

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 will keep myself,

I would find a way
