===Meaning===
The meaning of this song is entirely debatable. Some may interpret this as a depressing suicide note, while others may find it to describe someone finding a new lease on life.
===AppearancesCovers===*The Downward Spiral*Hurt has been covered by a variety of artists, such as [[Matthew Good]], [[Peter Murphy]], and [[Further Down The SpiralSevendust]]*. The song gained popularity in 2002 when it was famously covered by [[ClosureJohnny Cash]]*, at the recommendation of producer [[And All That Could Have Been (halo)|And All That Could Have BeenRick Rubin]] (CD/DVD/VHS)*. This caused a lot of confusion for the audiences of Cash, who generally weren't familiar with the work of [[Beside You In Time (halo)|Beside You In TimeNine Inch Nails]] ===Versions===*Hurt*Hurt (Quite)*Hurt (Live), often resulting in miscrediting the song to Cash. In Cash's version, the line "crown of shit" is changed to "crown of thorns," but is otherwise unchanged.
