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 thorns, upon 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.
