Sometimes I need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I need you to stay away from me
Sometimes Im in disbelief, I didn't know
Somehow I need you to go
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
Sometimes I feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I just feel like screaming at myself
Sometimes Im in disbelief, I didn't know
Somehow I need to be alone
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
I dont need you anymore, I dont want to be ignored
I dont need one more day of you wasting me away
I dont need you anymore, I dont want to be ignored
I dont need one more day of you wasting me away
(With no apologies)
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
Dont stay
Dont stay

Linkin Park

Hybrid Theory isn’t just the title of Linkin Park’s chart-topping debut album, but a career mission statement.

From day one, the same six players (lead vocalist Chester Bennington, drummer/percussionist Rob Bourdon, guitarist Brad Delson, bassist Dave ‘Phoenix’ Farrell, DJ/Programmer Joe Hahn, and keyboardist, guitarist, and co-lead vocals Mike Shinoda) built the band by fusing all their favorite styles of music into one unmistakable signature sound. With each album, Linkin Park defiantly challenges themselves and their fans by blasting into new musical territory. After setting the template for rock that incorporated hip-hop influences with Hybrid Theory and Meteora, they shifted gears completely and defied expectations with the polychromatic Minutes to Midnight, and again with the esoteric A Thousand Suns, before melding a piece of them all into 2012’s LIVING THINGS. With their 2014 release and heaviest offering in years, The Hunting Party, Linkin Park manage to capture their ever-innovative spirit with a hunger seldom seen in bands on their seventh album. One More Light (2017) is an interesting personal album, filled with a lot of emotion.

Unfortunately, on July 20, 2017, Chester unexpectedly died by suicide, shocking and saddening both fans and his own band members alike.
