dve najsmutnejšie pesničky - Johnny Cash- Hurt a Pink Floyd- High Hopes





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









Beyond the horizon of the we lived when we were young
in a world of magnets and miracles
our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
the ringing of the division bell had begun.

along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
do they still meet there by the cut

there was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
running before time took our dreams away
leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
to a live consumed by slow decay

the grass was greener
the light was brighter
with friends surrounded
the nigh of wonder

looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
to a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
dragged by the force of some inner tide

at a higher altitude with flag unfurled
we reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

encumbered forever by desire and ambition
there´s a hunger still unsatisfied
our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
though down this road we´ve been so many times

the grass was greener
the light was brighter
the taste was sweetee
the nights of wonder
with friends surrounded
the dawn mist glowing
the water flowing
the endless river

forever and ever ...
