Linkin Park ☆ The Requiem

This is not the end
this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
rocking every revision
But you listen through the tone
and the violent rhythm and
Though the words sound steady
something empty’s within ’em
We say yeah
with fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto
something that’s invisible there
‘Cause we’re living at the mercy
of the pain and fear
Until we dead it forget it
let it all disappear
Waiting for the end to come
wishing I had strength to stand
This was not what I had planned
It’s out of my control
Flying at the speed of light
thoughts were spinning
in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It’s hard to let you go
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade this
life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got
Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasn’t so
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade this
life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got
What was left when
that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but
that right was wrong
All caught up
in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what
it’s like moving on
And I don’t even know
what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving
and my mind went dead so
Picking up the pieces now
where to begin
The hardest part of ending
is starting again
All I want to do is trade this
life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got
This is not the end
this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
rocking every revision
But you listen through the tone
and the violent rhythm
and Though the words sound steady
something empty’s within ’em
We say yeah with fists
flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something
that’s invisible there
‘Cause we’re living at the mercy
of the pain and fear
Until we dead it forget it let
it all disappear
