LINKIN PARK "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 explain 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
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though
I tried, it all fell apart
What it 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
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
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 your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so far
Things aren’t the way they 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 though I tried, it all fell apart
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
I got my feet on the ground and my head in the cloud
Everyone whispers 'cause I talk too loud
Hangin' out with the girls just ain't my scene
It takes one to know one and girls are mean
Yeah girls are mean
Let 'em stare I don't care
'Cause I'm exception to the rule
They're only jealous 'cause I'm so cool
I'm a disco daughter who walks in four-four time
Sippin' co-cola with a twist of lime
Hangin' out with the boys is where it's at
'Cause they got the balls and I got the bat
Yeah I got the bat
Let 'em stare I don't care
'Cause mama didn't raise no fool
They're only jealous 'cause I'm so cool
Oh I don't care
'Cause mama didn't raise no fool
They're only jealous 'cause I'm so cool
They're only jealous 'cause I'm so cool
