I hurt myself today,   to see if i still feel,   I focus on the pain,   the only thing thats real,      The needle tears a hole,   the old familiar sting,   try to kill it all away,   but I remember everything,      (Chorus)   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 liars chair,   full of broken thoughts,   I cannot repair,      beneath the stains of time,   the feelings dissapear,   you are someone else,   I am still right here,      What have I become, (yeah!)   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 keep myself,   I would find a way,
