[Verse: Mike Shinoda]
Looked in the ocean, looked in the sea
Found her often watching for me
Left the door open, left the door wide
And she often kept it inside, oh

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda]

[Scat Rapping]

Don't trust
If you don't, then your fighting for what?

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda]
We're fighting for a place we can call home
Looking for a way not to be alone
We're fighting for a place we can call home
Looking for a way not to be alone
Not to be alone

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda]
Da na na, da na-na, na na, na-na, na na na na
Da na na, da na-na, na na, na-na, na na na na
Da na na, da na-na, na na, na-na, na na na na
Da na na, da na-na, na na, na-na, na na na na
Da na na, na-na na

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda]
We're fighting for a place we can call home
Looking for a way not to be alone
We're fighting for a place we can call home
Looking for a way not to be alone
Not to be alone

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.
