np: hurt : johnny cash
"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
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've never heard that song before, but it's so cool.
I love your blog! How you integrate songs and pictures. Pictures are worth a thousand words, as they say, and songs I think are worth ten million.
thanks for visiting. some things i can't find the words for, i use pictures. and songs... songs say everything. :)
that song was originally done by nine inch nails. i have no idea why johnny cash covered it. but it's so beautiful and sad...
