Hybrid Theory – Crawling

Crawling in my skin

These wounds they will not

Fear is how I feel
Confusing what is real

There’s something inside me

That pulls benathe the surface

Consuming – confusing

This lack of self control

I fear is never ending

Controlling

I can’t seem

To find myself again

My walls are closing in

(Without a sense of considence

I’m convinced there’s just

Too much pressure to take)

I’ve felt this way before

So insecure…

Crawling in my skin

These wounds they will not heal

Fear is how I feel

Confusing what is real

Discomfort
Endessly has pulled itself upon me

Distracting – reacting

Against my will

I stand beside my own reflection

It’s haunting how I can’t seem

To find myself again

My walls are closing in

(Without a sense of considence

I’m convinced there’s just

Too much pressure to take)

I’ve felt this way before

So insecure…

Crawling in my skin

These wounds they will not heal

Fear is how I feel

Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin

These wounds they will not heal

Fear is how I feel

Confusing what is real

Hybrid Theory - Runaway

Graffiti decorations
Underneath a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learned were never true

Now I find myself in question
[They point the finger at me again]
Guilty by association
[You point the finger at me again]

I wanna run away
Never say good-bye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

Paper bags and angry voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true

Now I find myself in question
[They point the finger at me again]
Guilty by association
[You point the finger at me again]

I wanna run away
Never say good-bye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

Gonna run away

Hybrid Theory - By Myself

What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride/ From these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I/ Sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I/ Try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I can't hold on/ When I'm stretched so thin
I make the right moves but I'm lost within
I put on my daily facade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself [Myself]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can't rely on myself

I can't hold on
[To what I want when I'm stretched so thin]
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on
[To anything watching everything spin]
With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I/ Turn my back I'm defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on/ Then they'll
Take from me till everything is gone
If I let them go I'll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer

By myself [Myself]
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can't rely on myself

I can't hold on
[To what I want when I'm stretched so thin]
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on
[To anything watching everything spin]
With thoughts of failure sinking in

How do you think/ I've lost so much
I'm so afraid/ I'm out of touch
How do you expect/ I will know what to do
When all I know/ Is what you tell me to

Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside

I can't hold on
[To what I want when I'm stretched so thin]
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on
[To anything watching everything spin]
With thoughts of failure sinking in

Hybrid Theory – In The End

It’s 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

Whatch it fly by

To the lied of the day

The clock ticks life away

It’s so unreal

Don’t look out below

Watch the time go

Right out the window

Trying to hold on

But don’t ven 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 the time when…

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

I hard te fall to lose it all

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

One thing I don’t know why

It doesn’t even matter

How hard to try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme

To remind myself

How I tried so hard

In spike on the way

You were mocking me acting like

I was part of your property

Remebering all the times

You fought with me

I’m surprised it got so (far)

Things aren’t the way before

You wouldn’t even recognise 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 felt apart

What it meant to me

Will eventually me

A memory of the time when…

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

I hard te fall to lose it all

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I’ve put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

I hard te fall to lose it all

But in the end it doesn’t even matter

Hybrid Theory - A Place For My Head

I watch how the
Moon sits in the sky/ In the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
The sun doesn't give life to the moon assuming
The moon's gonna owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me/ You do
Favors and then rapidly/ You just
Turn around and start asking me/ About
Things that you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension/ Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place/ To feed your greed-
While I find a place to rest

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
[You'll see it's not meant to be]
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Maybe someday I'll be just like you/ And
Step on people like you do and
Run away the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm/ Used to be strong
Used to be generous/ But you should've known
That you'd
Wear out your welcome/ Now you see
How quiet it is/ All alone

I’m so Sick of the tension/ Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like i owe you this
Find another place/ To feed your greed-
While/ I find a place to rest

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
[You'll see it's not meant to be]
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

You try to take the best of me
Go away

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
[You'll see it's not meant to be]
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

I’m so sick of the tension/ Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like i owe you this
Find another place/ To feed your greed-
While/ I find a place to rest
