By Myself - Linkin Park

[00:09.86]What do I do to ignore them behind me?
[00:12.10]Do I follow my instincts blindly?
[00:14.42]Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams?
[00:16.81]And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
[00:19.22]Do I sit here and try to stand it?
[00:21.54]Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
[00:23.76]Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness
[00:26.17]Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
[00:28.46]Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin
[00:30.91]I make the right moves but I'm lost within
[00:33.37]I put on my daily facade but then
[00:35.56]I just end up getting hurt again
[00:38.43]By myself [MYSELF]
[00:39.25]I ask why, but in my mind
[00:41.29]I find I can’t rely on myself[MYSELF]
[00:43.91]I ask why, but in my mind
[00:45.79]I find I can’t rely on myself
[00:48.01]I can’t hold on
[00:49.92]To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
[00:52.62]It’s all too much to take in
[00:57.22]I can’t hold on
[00:59.12]To anything watching everything spin
[01:01.89]With thoughts of failure sinking in
[01:06.74]If I turn my back, I’m defenseless
[01:09.32]And to go blindly seems senseless
[01:11.66]If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they’ll
[01:14.34]Take from me ‘till everything is gone
[01:16.32]If I let them go I’ll be outdone
[01:18.42]But if I try to catch them I’ll be outrun
[01:20.84]If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
[01:23.08]Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer
[01:25.22]By myself [MYSELF]
[01:27.42]I ask why, but in my mind
[01:28.98]I find I can’t rely on myself[MYSELF]
[01:31.80]I ask why, but in my mind
[01:33.52]I find I can’t rely on myself
[01:35.84]I can’t hold on
[01:37.69]To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
[01:40.38]It’s all too much to take in
[01:44.95]I can’t hold on
[01:47.00]To anything watching everything spin
[01:49.73]With thoughts of failure sinking in
[01:54.55]How do you think I’ve lost so much
[01:58.41]I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
[02:03.69]How do you expect... I will know what to do
[02:08.02]When all I know Is what you tell me to
[02:12.30]Don’t you KNOW
[02:13.51]I can’t tell you how to make it GO
[02:15.92]No matter what I do, how hard I TRY
[02:18.33]I can’t seem to convince myself WHY
[02:20.53]I’m stuck on the outside
[02:21.63]Don’t you KNOW
[02:22.94]I can’t tell you how to make it GO
[02:25.20]No matter what I do, how hard I TRY
[02:27.53]I can’t seem to convince myself WHY
[02:29.83]I’m stuck on the outside
[02:31.54]I can’t hold on
[02:33.60]To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
[02:36.27]It’s all too much to take in
[02:40.87]I can’t hold on
[02:42.83]To anything watching everything spin
[02:45.58]With thoughts of failure sinking in
[02:50.20]I can’t hold on
[02:52.20]To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
[02:54.90]It’s all too much to take in
[02:59.51]I can’t hold on
[03:01.72]To anything watching everything spin
[03:04.23]With thoughts of failure sinking in
