The song is a tough pill to swallow. The whole album is dangerously aggressive and hostile towards society and constructs, and as with depression, that anger eventually turns inward. There is a reason that this song is the last on the album. I feel the genuine theme of hurt is "It wasn't worth it".
@@whocaresofusername it personally also reminds me of the futility of doing something *solely* out of spite, ie the power of compassion and making amends instead of holding onto grudges without proper reasons, like with how spite can be a good motivational tool, but without another motivator or reason for action, a spiteful action will leave you hollow, not worth it
It’s strange that a song without lyrics or treznors voice almost sounds like a new song. You are able to really listen and pick up on small things that you might not have due to a voice track overshadowing something. This is really cool. Thanks for posting.
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 shit Upon my liars 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 will keep myself I would find a way
The children are the future. One day they will be the only ones remembering this stuff once we're gone. Be glad that they are willing to carry our memes.
hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on my 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 You could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt
Such a beautiful song, I'd like to thank Johnny Cash for introducing it to me (yes, I know he covered it). I can't seem to find the instrumental version on any of their albums. Was it actually released?
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 hold 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
@@pedropereiraneto i don’t understand what the problem is? I posted the lyrics because I wanted them in the comments while I sang it, if you don’t need the lyrics just scroll on
@@raniericampellodellaspina2340 if it is YOUR need, other people don't need to see it. open another browser window with the lyrics and leave the comments section for people appreciating the music, not your particular needs around it. it is not rocket science. a little less YOU would be welcome.
This is the song that would give a fps a eerie feel. Like imagine your entire team silent with gas masks on walking through a toxic mist, stepping over the corpses of the enemies while this plays
Hey guys! We did a full cover of Nine Inch Nails Hurt! If you like, you can listen to it and leave a comment =) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TfNPCWAmqWE.html
Welmi Mertis thats not the only thing this song is about. Listen to it a little closer, there are many themes that are discussed in not only this song but the entire downward spiral album
I think it’s about a lot of things. Depression, regret, loss, self doubt, self hate, addiction. No matter what I think it was written for all of us who deal with these things. Those Who want to die, who cry themselves to sleep all the time, who wish things were different, who have anxiety attacks, who have an addiction, who blame themselves for their own pain, who hate themselves, who Long for the past. All of us who hurt.
I've been messing with Spleeter for a few days now trying to properly isolate the vocals for this song. Is there any chance you could get a nice vocals only version done and release it?
I heard it in Rick and Morty, loved it, and knew I had to find it. After doing some digging I finally found it. I kinda forgot about the show after a while, but I still listen to the song.
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 [Chorus] What have I become? My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end You could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt [Verse 2] I wear this crown of 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 [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 [Outro] If I could start again A million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way
The Dank Messiah It's actually not childish, it's pretty inappropriate for kids, it's partly comedy, and it has more fans that you do. So I think you can just shut up about it and keep that filth to yourself.
Yours Truly I wasn't talking about the show, I was referring to the fans themselves. And no shit Sherlock. Comparing a TV show to one person via fans would result in a decrease/uplift. Why are you telling me to shut up? I'm protected by the first amendment, you don't need to spread your fascist ways around someone. Gee. Morty Smith Sorry bud, but you're not solving the problem.
Chú Tư Cầu No, they didn't. Westside Connection sampled THIS song in THEIRS. So technically THEY "stole" it. www.whosampled.com/sample/4915/Westside-Connection-The-Gangsta,-the-Killa-and-the-Dope-Dealer-Nine-Inch-Nails-Hurt/ Hurt was released in 1994, two years before the song The Gangsta, The Killah and The Dope Dealer was released. Do your research before you say stupid shit.
