Linkin Park's Song

IN THE END

I- It starts with One thing I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go I kept everything inside
And even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when


I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter
I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter


Repeat 1st Stanza Chords

II- One thing I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you've fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
(In the end)
You kept everything inside
And even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when

Chorus

I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this There's only one thing you should know

I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this There's only one thing you should know

Chorus



GIVEN UP

Wake in a sweat again
Another day's been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like i'll never leave this place
There's no escape
I'm my own worst enemy

I've given up
I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say
Take this all away
I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

I don't know what to take
Thougt i was focused but i'm scared
I'm not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help somehow somewhere
And no one cares
I'm my own worst enemy

I've given up
I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say
Take this all away
I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my, put me out of my fucking misery

I've given up
I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say
Take this all away
I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me



PUSHING ME AWAY

Ive lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That Ill fake for the sake of being with you
(Everything falls apart,
even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end,
youll soon find were out of time left to watch it all
unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now i see your testing me pushes me away

Ive tried, like you
To do everything you wanted too
This is the last time
Ill take the blame for the sake of being with you
(Everything falls apart,
even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end,
youll soon find were out of time left to watch it all
unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing

Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now i see your testing me pushes me away

Were all out of time, this is how we find how it all unwinds
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Were all out of time, this is how we find how it all unwinds
The sacrifice is never knowing

Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I playe myself this way?
Now i see your testing me
Pushes me awa--------------y...
Pushes me awa--------------y...



PAPERCUT

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today.
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin

Chorus

The face inside is right beneath your skin (3x)
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me (Repeat until end)

Chorus (Repeat until end)



LYING FROM YOU

when i pretend
everything is what i want it to be
i look exactly like what you had always wanted to see
when i pretend
i can forget about the criminal i am
stealing second after second just cause i know i can / but
i can't pretend this is the way it will stay / i'm just
trying to bend the truth
i can't pretend i'm who you want me to be
so i'm
lying my way from you

[no / no turning back now]
i wanna be pushed aside
so let me go
[no / no turning back now]
let me take back my life
i'd rather be all alone
[no turning back now]
anywhere on my own
cause i can see
[no / no turning back now]
the very worst part of you
is me

i remember what they taught to me
remember condescending talk of who i ought to be
remember listening to all of that and this again
so i pretended up a person who was fitting in
and now you think this person really is me and i'm
[trying to bend the truth]
but the more i push
the more i'm pulling away
'cause i'm

lying my way from you

this isn't what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me
like this

the very worst part of you
the very worst part of you
is me
