Hurt Myself
Dark Lotus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Barking)
Pain is sexual
And I'm horny
I'm horny
horny

Violent J:
I jump in the mosh pit, but I'm alone
Between four trees, I get it on
My brain is hemorrhaging, it's them or me
It ain't easy knocking over a tree (I pass out)
I wake up the room is padded
It would appear I've had it
But hold up
Close rip, wrap them around my neck
And choke myself to death, no breath
Now I'm out, I'm strapped down
Wait, I can still move my head around
But I got about four inches between the back of my head
And the metal gurney bed
BOOM!
Slamming it, retraction
BOOM
I feel the back of my skull is cracking
BOOM
A broken bone is piercing my brain
And BOOM, I just hammered it in...

Ahhhhh
Ahh I hurt myself
God I hurt myself
Stop me
Pain, pain pain
I hurt myself
Stop me

Monoxide Child:
I'm sitting in the dark, talking to myself
Why does everybody tell me that I need help?
I'm in love with pain
I take a needle or a knife
And drive that mother fucker through my windpipe
Just might
Take a razor blade
Dip it in some gas
See if I can take a little skin off the calf
Grotesque I'm a walking body bag
And when it all heals, I pick the scabs

Blaze Ya Dead Homie:
Alone in the casket, buried in the earth
Self-inflicted wounds, blood stains on my t-shirt
Kick out the door till my legs fall off
Try to use my head, but my skull too soft
The pain overwhelms shooting through my kidneys
Blood rushes out when I stick a shank in me
Keep stabbing and sticking
And pulling all the blood spitting
I cut off oxygen
Take my own life again

Chorus:
Why, tell me why
Do you hurt yourself, when you know I love you
AH STOP ME!
Why, tell me why
Do you hurt yourself, when you know I love you
AH STOP ME!

Marz:
You try to run upon me and pull that piece out of that belt
I smile, grab that shit and shot my fucking self
I staple my tattoos on
See me closed eye running into traffic, just to get my bruise on
An ice pick through the head of my dick
I might slice up my face and my lips
My main artery is begging me to let it flow free
Grab a razor blade let it bleed..

Shaggy 2 Dope:
I layer up skin ohhh, I pull it back
And smooth it back down with one simple smack (OUCH)
Wednesday nights I got kicked off my bowling league
Just cause I show up, bite a bowling ball, and leave
Yeah go ahead curse me you faggots
So I throw my legs onto moving cars, you got your habits
I don't consider it hurting myself, it brings me joy
Now shut the fuck up here
Batter up UHHHHAHHH!!

Jamie Madrox:
Cut and slice away with a steak knife
Hit myself in the ankle with PVC pipe
Exacto blade underneath the fingernail
Bleed and make another cut, fuck it might as well
Tablespoon of Morton's salt in the openwound
If it don't burn, you don't know what you doing
If you fail, just return to start
Self defecation is a beautiful art

Chorus
(Groaning and yelling)
STOP ME
STOP ME
STOP ME
Pain is sexual
Pain
Sexual
Parts of Chorus
Pain is sexual
STOP ME!
Is it sexual?
Sexual
Sexual
STOP ME!
Is it sexual?




Haha
STOP ME!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dark Lotus's "Hurt Myself" describe different ways in which the members of the group inflict harm on their own bodies. Pain and harm are seen as pleasurable, with the lyrics suggesting that hurting themselves brings them a kind of sexual satisfaction. Throughout the song, the members describe cutting, stabbing, and burning themselves, with some taking more extreme measures like choking themselves or slamming their heads onto metal beds. The lyrics are graphic and disturbing, but they seem to be an honest expression of the members' own struggles with self-harm and mental health.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asks the question "Why do you hurt yourself when you know I love you?" This line seems to suggest that the members of the group are not only hurting themselves physically but also emotionally, perhaps feeling unloved or neglected by those around them. The use of the word "love" in the context of self-harm is complex and raises questions about the relationship between pleasure and pain.


Overall, "Hurt Myself" is a disturbing but insightful song about self-harm and the ways in which people cope with difficult emotions. The graphic lyrics and use of sexual imagery make it a challenging listen, but it sheds light on an important issue that is often stigmatized and overlooked.

I jump in the mosh pit, but I'm alone.
Between 4 trees I get it on.
My brain is hemorrhaging, it's them or me
It ain't easy knocking over a tree, I pass out
I wake up, the room is padded,
It would appear I've had it
But hold up
Close rip, wrap them around my neck
And choke myself to death! No breath!
Now I'm out, I'm strapped down
Wait, I can still move my head around,
I got about 4 inches between the back of my head
And the metal gurney bed
BOOM!.
Slamming it, retractions
BOOM!.
I feel the back of my skull is cracking
BOOM!.
A broken bone is piercing my brain
And oh, BOOM! I just hammered it in.......(Most morbid verse I've heard in my life!)

My brain is hemorhaging, it's them or me
It ain't easy knocking over a tree
Pass out, I wake up, the room is padded
It would appear I've had it, but hold up
Clothes ripper, wrap 'em around my neck
And choke myself to death, no breath
Now I'm out, I'm strapped down
Wait, I can still move my head around
I got about 4 inches between the back of my head
And the metal gurney bed (boom)
Slammin' it, retractions

Alone in the casket, buried in the earth
Self-inflicketed wounds, blood stains on my t-shirt
Kick at the door til' my legs fall off
Try to use my head but my skull to soft
The pain overwhlems, shootin' through my kidney
Blood rushes out when I stick the shank in me
Keep stabbin' and stickin', a wound opened up again
Cut off oxygen, take my own life again

[Hook: repeat 2X]
Why....tell me why...do you hurt yourself
When you know I love you? (Stop Me!)

(Marz)
Ya try to run up on me, and pull a piece out that belt
I smiled, grabbed that shit and shot my fucking self
I staple my tattoos on, see me close eye'd
Runnin' in the traffic, just to get my bruise on
An icepick through the head of my dick
I might slice up my face & my lips
My main artery, is beggin' me
To let it float free, grab a razor blade, let it bleed

(Shaggy 2Dope)
A layer of skin, ooh, I pull it back
And smooth it back down with one simple smack
Wednesday nights I got kicked off my bowling league
Just cause I show up, bite a bowling ball and leave
Yea go ahead, curse me you faggots
So I throw my legs under moving cars, you got your habbits
I don't consider it hurtin' myself
It brings me joy, now shut the fuck up, here! (batter up)(crack)(Jamie Madrox)
Cut and slice away with the steak knife
Hit myself in the ankle with PBC pipe
Exact-O-Blade, underneith the finger nail
Bleed and make another cut, fuckin' might as well
Table spoon of Mortan's salt in an open wound
If it don't burn you don't know what you doin'
If you fail, just return to start
Self-defecation, is a beautiful art
