Hybrid Theory


1. PAPERCUT

2. ONE STEP CLOSER
                I cannot take this anymore
                I'm saying everything I've said before
                All these words they make no sense
                I find bliss in ignorance
                Less I hear the less you'll say
                But you'll find that out anyway

                Just like before...

                Everything you say to me
                Takes me one step closer to the edge
                And I'm about to break
                I need a little room to breathe
                'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
                And I'm about to break

                I find the answers aren't so clear
                Wish I could find a way to disappear
                All these thoughts they make no sense
                I find bliss in ignorance
                Nothing seems to go away
                Over and over again

                Shut up when I'm talking to you

3. WITH YOU
                I woke up in a dream today
                To the cold of the static/and put my cold feet on the floor
                Forgot all about yesterday
                Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
                A little taste of hypocrisy
                And I'm left in the wake of the mistake/slow to react
                Even though you're so close to me
                You're still so distant/and I can't bring you back

                It's true/the way I feel
                Was promised by your face
                The sound of your voice
                Painted on my memories
                Even If you're not with me
                I'm with you

                You/now I see/keeping everything inside
                You/now I see/even when I close my eyes

                I hit you and you hit me back
                We fall to the floor/the rest of the day stands still
                Fine line between this and that
                When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real
                Now I'm trapped in this memory
                And I'm left in the wake of the mistake/slow to react
                Even though you're close to me
                You're still so distant/and I can't bring you back

                No
                No matter how far we've come
                I can't wait to see tomorrow
                With you

4. POINTS OF AUTHORITY
                Forfeit the game/before somebody else
                Takes you out of the frame/put your name to shame
                Cover up your face/you can't run the race
                The pace is too fast/you just won't last

                You love the way I look at you
                While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
                You take away if I give in
                My life
                My pride is broken

                You love the things I say I'll do -
                The way I'll hurt myself again just to get back at you
                You take away when I give in
                My life
                My pride is broken

                CHORUS:
                You like to think you're never wrong
                You want to act like you're someone
                You want someone to hurt like you
                You want to share what you've been through
                (You live what you learn)

5. CRAWLING
                Crawling in my skin
                Consuming all I feel
                Fear is how I fall
                Confusing what is real

                There's something inside me that pulls beneath 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 confidence and I'm convinced
                That there's just too much pressure to take]
                I've felt this way before
                So insecure

                Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
                Distracting/reacting
                Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
                It's haunting how I can't seem

6. RUNAWAY
                Graffiti decorations
                Underneath 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]
                Guilt by association
                [You point the finger at me again]

                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

                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

7. 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 thoughs 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 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]

                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

8. IN THE END
                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 explane 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 feel apart
                What I 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
                And lose it all
                But in the end
                It doesn't even matter

                One thing/I don't know why
                Doesn't even matter how hard you try
                Keep that in mind/I designed this rhyme
                To remind myself how
                I tried so hard

                One thing/I don't know why
                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 you property
                Remembering all the times you fought with me/I'm surprised
                It got so [far]
                Things aren't the way the 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 trough I tried/it all feel apart
                What it meant to me/will eventually/ be a memory/of a time when I

                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...

9. 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 anotehr 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 anotehr place/to feed your greed -
                While/I find a place to rest

                You try to take the best of me
                Go away

10. FORGOTTEN
                From the top to the bottom
                Bottom to top I stop
                At the core I've forgotten
                In the middle of my thoughts
                Taken far from my safety
                The picture is there
                The memory won't escape me
                But why should I care

                There's a place so dark you can't see the end
                [Skies cock back] and shock that which can't defend
                The rain then sends dripping/an acidic question
                Forcefully, the power of suggestion
                Then with the eyes tightly shut/looking through the rest and rot
                And pours over the rusted world of pretend
                The eyes ease open and it's dark again

                In the memory you'll find me
                Eyes burning up
                The darkness holding me tightly
                Until the sun rises up

                Moving all around/screaming of the ups and downs
                Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
                The wheels go 'round and the sunset creeps past the
                Street lamps, chain-link and concrete
                A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats
                On down the street till the wind is gone
                The memory now is like the picture was then
                When the paper's crumpled up it can be perfect again

                Now you got me caught in the act
                You bring the thought back
                I'm telling you that
                I see it right through you
