Hurt

[Verse 1: Christy Moore]
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
I try to kill it all away
I remember everything

[Chorus: Christy Moore & Vickie Keating]
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

[Verse 2: Christy Moore]
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feeling disappears
You are someone else
I am still right here

[Chorus: Christy Moore & Vickie Keating]
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 fall
I will make you hurt

[Outro: Christy Moore, lChristy Moore & Vickie Keatingl]
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
