1. Hurt (sometimes typeset as HURT) is a rock band formed in 2000 in Virginia, now located in St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Currently signed to Carved Records, the band has released three major label albums, with the fourth, The Crux, released on May 1, 2012. The group consists of lead singer J. Loren Wince, guitarist Michael Roberts, bassist Rek Mohr, and drummer Victor Ribas.

The band first released the independent albums Hurt in 2000 and The Consumation in 2003. Many of the songs from these albums found their way onto their first two major label releases, and The Consumation was re-mastered as The Re-Consumation in 2008. The band received critical (though not commercial) success with their major label debut album, Vol. 1, released on March 21, 2006. Their singles "Rapture" and "Falls Apart" gained minor radio airplay on rock stations throughout United States. Their second album was the critically acclaimed Vol. II, released on September 25, 2007, and they gained their largest radio rock hit yet with the single "Ten Ton Brick."

HURT released their fifth studio album on April 7, 2009, titled Goodbye to the Machine.

On May 1, 2012, the album The Crux was released on Carved Records featuring the single "How We End Up Alone."

2. Hurt formed in Wrocław, Poland and debuted in 1994 with a tape titled "Babilon". In 1997 they released a live album "Serki dietetyczne". At that time they were a little known, some would say underground band. All that started to change when the biggest independent label in Poland became interested in them and so came the cd for SP Records called "Musisz to kupić" (1999). After that record the band got their first drummer, before that they played with automatic percussion. You can still hear it in their style.
After that follwed another cd "Dokładny czas". (2000)
Then the group stopped touring for a while and almost put an end to it's existence. However, after some personnal changes they've returned in 2005 with "Czat" contaning the hit "Załoga G" and started touring more then usual. In summer 2006 Hurt toured with happysad.

Eden
Hurt Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

On a prayerless place in time
The sun would shine
Her pretty face was waiting there
Where he would swear to catch you if you'd fall
We will leave the world behind
To find another comfort in that sanctuary's
Garden dressed in garments made of white

It was the only time
That Eden wasn't far away from me
It was the only time
Believing wasn't hard for me because I found you near me

Now, we'll leave the world behind
I drink the foul to comfort in that sanctuary
Cemeteries always build beside
It's like a needle in the eye
The thought about the gardens very
Vision's where these thorns are buried
Deep inside my...mind

But it's the only time
That Eden wasn't far away from me.
It was the only time
That believing wasn't hard for me because I found you near me

Do what you take
When your heart aches.
Hope that we catch you when you fall.
But when you do
What do we do
To see that all around you?

So, now it's only time...
So, now it's only time!

Now it's the only time
That Eden wasn't far away from me, from me
I know it's only time

But believing's just the hardest thing to do
When you're not here with me!

Overall Meaning

In the song "Eden" by Hurt, the singer expresses a desire to return to a time when they felt safe and protected, symbolized by the concept of the Garden of Eden. The opening lines describe a bleak, "prayerless" world, but contrast this with the memory of a bright and welcoming woman ("Her pretty face was waiting there") who offered to catch the singer if they fell. This memory is associated with the sanctuary of an idyllic garden, where everything is "made of white." The singer longs to return to this place, and finds solace in the idea that they will one day leave the outside world behind and return to this paradise.

Throughout the song, the singer struggles with the difficulty of believing in this vision of paradise. They struggle to find hope and comfort, particularly as they are surrounded by "cemeteries" and "thorns" that threaten their peace. Still, they cling to the memory of the Garden of Eden and the woman who offered them comfort.

At the end of the song, the singer comes to the realization that they cannot return to this paradise yet. Instead, they acknowledge that "believing's just the hardest thing to do when you're not here with me." Despite this acknowledgement, however, the song ends on a hopeful note: the singer expresses the belief that they will one day return to Eden, even if it's only in their heart.

Line by Line Meaning

On a prayerless place in time
In a bleak moment in time devoid of hope

The sun would shine
Despite darkness, there was still some light

Her pretty face was waiting there
A beautiful person was present in that moment

Where he would swear to catch you if you'd fall
Someone was there to help you if you stumbled

We will leave the world behind
Escaping the troubles of the world

To find another comfort in that sanctuary's
Seeking solace in a sacred place

Garden dressed in garments made of white
A holy and pure environment

It was the only time
This moment was unique

That Eden wasn't far away from me
Feeling close to paradise

Believing wasn't hard for me because I found you near me
Having faith did not feel difficult because of the presence of a loved one

I drink the foul to comfort in that sanctuary
Finding comfort even in unpleasant circumstances
