Linkin Park Song Lyrics

Lyrics

Answer

Wash the poison from off my skin, Show me how to be whole again

Can y'all explain what kind of land is this when a man has plans of being rich, But the bosses plans is wealthy? Dirty money scheme, a clean split is nonsense

I never been higher than I was that night, I woke up driving my car

All these thoughts: they make no sense, I find bliss in ignorance

Too many things that you've said about me when I'm not around, You think having the upper hand means you gotta keep putting me down

There was so much more to lose, Than the pain I put you through, In my carelessness I left you in the dark

We swim against the rising waves, And crash against the shore

You say the weight of the world, Has kept you from letting go, And you think compassion's a flaw, And you'll never let it show

All you've ever wanted, Was someone to truly look up to you, And six feet under water, I do

I remembered each flash, As time began to blur, Like a startling sign, That fate had finally found me

And pours over the rusted world of pretend, And the eyes ease open and it's dark again

Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple, Sometimes goodbye's the only way

I'm not a criminal, not a role model, Not a born leader, I'm a tough act to follow, I am not the fortune and the fame, Or the same person telling you to forfeit the game

We are the fortunate ones, Who've never faced oppression's gun

All the walls that you keep building, All this time that I spent chasing, All the ways that I keep losing you
