Hurt (Dedicated to Johnny Cash)

[Verse 1: Clint Lowery & Lajon Witherspoon]
I want y'all to sing it!
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
Kill it all away
But I remember everything

[Chorus 1: Clint Lowery & Lajon Witherspoon]
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all (Sing it, y'all!)
My empire of dirt (This is it, sing it, y'all!)
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

[Verse 2: Clint Lowery]
I wear this crown of thorn
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
Feeling disappears
I am someone else
I remember everything

[Chorus 2: Clint Lowery]
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 will let you down
I would find a way

[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon & John Connolly]
Johnny Cash! (Err...)
Johnny Cash, y'all! Johnny Cash!
