David Bowie - Hurt lyrics

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 my crown of shit on my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts i cannot repair
Beneath the stain of time
The feeling disappears 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
