➥ Lyrics
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 love 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

    Are there any songs you guys would want me to cover??
  • @chancetime6420
    Nice work on the cover, always a bit concerned when I see this song preformed by someone else. J.Cash-Hurt not only my favorite song but the only cover I list in my top 5.
  • @QueenVosh
    Very beautiful cover, keep doing amazing, Love!!!! ❤
  • @therealdbg
    Great work! Though, technically, Hurt is a Nine Inch Nails song that Johnny Cash covered. That being said, your version is a great new addition to the legacy! 💜🖤💜
  • @TruHauntings
    This is absolutely beautiful.... I love Johnny Cash and this song.. you have a beautiful voice. I heard you first when boohoo came out with neoni. But sacrifice was the first of yours I've heard.

    My mind is blown away. This song is one of my favorite songs in life, it helped me out greatly in my times of need. Lead to my daughter being born, though that was more NIN's then Johnny. But this Riell, as a fellow Canadian I tip my beanie to you. This is the best cover I have ever heard of this song, even beat NIN in my opinion. Amazing job, thank you for this gift. 😄

    i remember u put this on spotify in february, and i added it to my playlist, but you removed it. its still on my playlist and is absolutely amazing!

    Glad y'all like this song, but it's originally a Nine Inch Nails song, Johnny Cash covered it years after it's release.
