Hurt

I can't seem to get the mopey feeling gone this summer. Don't know why or what the deal is. I'm excited to be busy with school again. Maybe have some adult conversation, ya know?

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
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of shit
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
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

Nine Inch Nails

This is a version of this song done acoustically by the band Sevendust. They do a version of Johnny Cash's rendition of this song...

I totally know the mopey feeling. I have had a hard time getting rid of it myself. Just had an underlying "blue" feeling.

I am anxious and sad for school to start.

Oye.
