Todays song is “hurt”. It was originally written by Trent Reznor of the nine inch nails and released on the 1994 album “the downward spiral”

The video I am sharing is the cover recorded by Johnny Cash just before his death in 2003. The lyrics are beautiful and the video is haunting. I love it. Enjoy

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 hurtI wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repairBeneath 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 will keep myself
I would find a way
