(Verse 1)
I remembered black skies / The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash / As time began to blur
Like a startling sign / That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard / That I get what I deserve
(Chorus)
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies
Across this new divide
(Verse 2)
There was nothing inside / The memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide / The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in / Between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard / That I get what I deserve
(Chorus 2)
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Across this new divide
(Bridge)
And every loss and every lie
And every truth that you deny
And each regret and each goodbye
Was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
But I get what I deserve
(Chorus 3)
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the thoughts cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it fill up to reach the truth and lies
Across this new divide
Across this new divide
Across this new divide IN THE END (LINKIN PARK)
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
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
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
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 remind myself of a time when
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
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time I
Chorus
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And 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
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know
Chorus (2x)
WHAT I'VE DONE (LINKIN PARK)
In this farewell
There's no blood
There's no alibi
Cause I've drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away
[Chorus]
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
Put to rest
What you've thought of me
While I've cleaned this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty
So let mercy come
And wash away
[Repeat Chorus]
For what I've done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I'm forgiving what I've...
Done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
What I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
What I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
Forgiving what I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
There's no blood
There's no alibi
Cause I've drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away
[Chorus]
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
Put to rest
What you've thought of me
While I've cleaned this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty
So let mercy come
And wash away
[Repeat Chorus]
For what I've done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I'm forgiving what I've...
Done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
What I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
What I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
Forgiving what I've done
(Na, Na, Na, Na, Na)
