It's dark today my friends

"Hurt"

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
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 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

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
-Trent Reznor

Blue days; too many regrets and too much guilt and so much lost time.

1. sorry you're feelin' blue today shadow
you're not alone.

I've found it's best to try and embrace the depression, if you can. I know that may not help you, but just wanted to toss it out there. :hi:

2. I think it embraces me, without my consent lol
Envelops, surrounds, suffocates and paralyzes. I love my freaking brain :sarcasm:

6. How will you recognize the light
