This is my cover of Hurt (Johhny Cash Version) and a review about it

This song was one of my favorite songs which Johnny Cash also covered from NIN band, the song called Hurt, the song has a feeling that you can imagine yourself when you are too old and about to leave the earth and you want to leave a message for younger people. I loved the cover version which was suitable for Johnny Cash and I thought maybe it is good to sing it with my low tone, a little like his version, I hope you guys like it.

Hurt was written by Trent Reznor, vocalist of Nine Inch Nails (an American Industrial band) and they created this song for their second album, it was called "The Downward Spiral" and it was released in 1994. later in 2002 Johhny Cash record a cover of this song which became one of the greatest hits of all time. Cash's version is performed with acoustic guitar and piano and in its music video it shows scenes from movies he played in them and it is as if the song is about his life. after that Reznor also started singing his own song with low tone for a while and he performed it in one of his concerts while he was only playing his keyboard and at the end, the band joined him. Reznor also could feel that Cash did a great work and he said: that song was not what I originally created, and he respected Cash's work on that cover.

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'm 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
