EmbryoSystem, little ironic that interpretation, isn't it? :) I think "it" is whatever you strive after. |

| Nine Inch Nails – Hurt Lyrics | 23 years ago |

To be honest I enjoy Jonny Cash's version of the song more than Nin's. It's something about his old, kind of grieving voice that does it for me. /the needle tears a hole the old familiar sting try to kill it all away but I remember everything/ I think this part of the song tells us that the person in the song have done something really bad. Maybe killed a person, I don't know. He isn't able to forget it, it haunts him everywhere. /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/ I think this part tells us that the person sees himself as a person with no feelings, but to try to deny that he hurt himself to just check that he still feels. /what have I become? my sweetest friend everyone I know goes away in the end/ People turn their backs to him. Stop supporting him through this. He asks himself what he have become after doing this kind of thing. He sees himself as the scum of the earth. So here we have the self-loathing. /you could have it all my empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I wear this crown of shit/ His empire of dirt is his life, the crown of shit is a metaphor to him. The king of his life, but since he think of himself as a kind of worthless person he does not carry a crown of gold, but shit. /upon my liar's chair full of broken thoughts I cannot repair beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear you are someone else I am still right here/ Everyone but him changes, he still got his thoughts to worry about, the stains of time still are on his clothes. /if I could start again a million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way/ He would do it all over again, if he'd only had the chance, he would keep the good, old himself, if it only was a way. Maybe a very shallow interpretation, and will you excuse my english, it sucks :) |
