[Originally by Nine Inch Nails]    
    
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    
    
[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 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    
    
If I could start again    
A million miles away    
I would keep myself    
I would find a way
