In The Face of Imperfection

Quote:

In the darkness
All that you want from me
is all I have to give
In the darkness
Coming so easily
Learning how to live
In the darkness
All that you want from me
is all I have to give
In the darkness
Coming so easily
Learning how to live
~Dead By Sunrise - In The Darkness [Out Of Ashes]


Month Arc:

Beside Adaptation 


We knew the world would not be the same...
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Two people laughed...
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom; I'm going back to my roots
Two people cried...
I have killed a man and all I know is I am on the run and go
Most people were silent.
And I'll fall down, and I'll break down, and I'll fake you out—I don't wanna
I remember the line from the Scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita...
Break the rhythm; fight the system; let go of the chains before we go insane
Vishnu was trying to persuade the prince that...
Looking for a way, not to be alone, not to be alone
...he should do his duty...
What I've done—I'll face myself, and cross out what I've become
...and to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says...
We want our future back, we want our own mistakes, to take our own path
"Now I am become death...
In these promises broken, deep below
"...the destroyer of worlds."
The very worst part of you is me!
I think we all thought that... one way or another.
I don't wanna be let down, I don't wanna live my lies again
Beg God please—have mercy on me
Do not disturb, scream in silence, everyone's sleeping
I bleed it out digging deeper just to throw it away, I bleed it out
Just hold on, the weight of the world will give you the strength to go
You like to think you're never wrong, you live what you've learned
In the darkness, coming so easily, learning how to live

So hold on, the weight of the world will give you the strength to go...

Defense of Ambiguous Worth

Quote:

You like to think you're never wrong
(You live what you've learned)
You have to act like you're someone
(You live what you've learned)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you've learned)
You want to share what you have been through
(You live what you've learned)

Theme:

Half Of The Flow

Quote:

Yeah, here we go for the hundredth time
Hand grenade pins in every line
Throw 'em up and let something shine
Going out of my fucking mind
Filthy mouth; no excuse
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I won't get loose
Truth is you can stop and stare
Bled myself out and no one cares
Dug the trench out laid down there
With a shovel up out of reach somewhere
Yeah, someone pour it in
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in

I bleed it out digging deeper
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out digging deeper
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out digging deeper
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out
~Linkin Park - Bleed It Out [Minutes to Midnight]

Troubled Traveler

Quote:

Alone in a world
With millions of souls
Walking in Circles
Trapped in their dreams
Unhealthy, unclean
Walking in Circles, now
Do not disturb
Scream in silence
Everyone's sleeping

Theme:

Waters of Pessimism and Cynicism

Quote:

When you read the news
Does it make you sick?
Murder, money, and politics
Gonna fill you up
Get your bullshit fix
It's the End Of The World
Grab your crucifix
And fall to your knees
And beg God please
Have mercy on me

When you turn on the TV
What do you get?
Sex, lies, scandal, violence
Like the end of a gun
Pressed against your lips
It's the End Of The World
Grab your crucifix
And fall to your knees
And beg God please
Have mercy on me
~Dead By Sunrise - End Of The World [Out Of Ashes]

Quote:

I don't want to be let down

Don't want to be lead down the same old road
So I don't want to be let down
I don't want to live my lies again
Don't want to be lead down the same old road

Catastrophe in Organized Chaos

Quote:

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried...
Most people were silent.
I remember the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says:
'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'
I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.

Theme:

Hiding in Futility

Quote:

Lying my way from you
(No, no turning back now)
I wanna be pushed aside
so let me go
(No, no turning back now)
Let me take back my life
I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
Anywhere on my own
cause I can see
(No, no turning back now)
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you
is me
~Linkin Park - Lying From You [Meteora]

Theme:

A New Pride

Quote:

No, you can tell 'em all now
I don't back up, I don't back down
I don't fold up, and I don't bow
I don't roll over, don't know how
I don't care where the enemies are
Can't be stopped, all I know; go hard
Won't forget how I got this far
For every time saying…

In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go (go!), go (go!), go (go!)

Go (go!), go (go!), go (go!)
~Linkin Park - Lost In The Echo [Living Things]

Quote:

Again and again
(You said we couldn't last long enough or be strong enough)
Again and again

We want our future back, We want our own mistakes, to take our own path
We wanna do it again

So let mercy come
And wash away

To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done

Theme:

Panic Inside At The Horizon's Dawn

Quote:

It's the same game today as it always is
I don't give these places fake my name explaining this
And the wrists of my mind have the bleeding lines
That remind me of all the times
I have committed
Dirty dirty crimes that are perfectly form-fitted
To what I've done and what I'm doing
I'm brewing and losing and spewing infusing
And believe me that's what all the kids are doing
What kids are doing are killing themselves
They feel they have no control of their prisoner's cell
And if you're one of them then you're one of me
And you would do almost anything just to feel free...
Am I right? Of course I am
Convince me otherwise would take all night
Before you walk away, there's one more thing I want to say;
Our brains are sick but that's okay!
~Twenty One Pilots - Fake You Out [Vessel]

I can't take them on my own, my own
Oh, I'm not the one you know, you know

Is I am on the run and go.

Quote:

I’m going back to my roots
Another day, another door
Another high, another low
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
I’m going back to my roots
Another day, another door
Another high, another low
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
I’m going back to my roots

Theme:

Reversion, Redemption

Quote:

This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
And though the words sound steady something empty's within them
We say yeah with fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there
'Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we get it, forget it, let it all disappear
~Linkin Park - Waiting For The End [A Thousand Suns]
