Hurt

As I heard Thurston Moore,Sonic Youth's frontman, speaking at the microphone

"Rock'n'Roll is pain"

a long time ago.

 

Hell if he was right..

 

I may add is even more painful in a place where conservative spirits rule the ship, where organized crime hits the breeze and rides the streets every single day, where rock'n'roll music never broke the ceiling and never had the chance to become a culture, sub-culture, break-ground , tradition or whatever. But just a way of living for a few. But just a dream for fools, they say..

 

Here's the matter,

and to this you add the feelings of every day..

It's missing rock'n'roll,

and I need to be fed and feed rock'n'roll.

 

But no worries:

we bear it in one way or another..

we'll leave and make it thru somewhere else

 

 

it's about what this song says, as well. Song's called "hurt" by NIN, but I love much more Johnny Cash's cover of 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

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

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 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

 

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 would keep myself

I would find a way

Done
