 Linkin Park - By Myself
 What do I do to ignore them behind me?
 Do I follow my instincts blindly?
 Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams?
 And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
 Do I sit here and try to stand it?
 Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
 Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,
 Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
 Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin
 I make the right moves but I'm lost within
 I put on my daily facade but then
 I just end up getting hurt again
 By myself [myself]
 
 [x2]
 I ask why, but in my mind
 I find I can’t rely on myself
 
 [Chorus:]
 I can’t hold on
 To what I want when I’m stretched so thin
 It’s all too much to take in
 I can’t hold on
 To anything watching everything spin
 With thoughts of failure sinking in
 
 If I
 Turn my back I’m defenseless
 And to go blindly seems senseless
 If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they’ll
 Take from me ‘till everything is gone
 If I let them go I’ll be outdone
 But if I try to catch them I’ll be outrun
 If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
 Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer
 by myself [myself]
 
 [x2]
 I ask why, but in my mind
 I find I can’t rely on myself
 
 [Chorus]
 
 How do you think I’ve lost so much
 I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
 How do you expect... I will know what to do
 When all I know Is what you tell me to
 
 [x2]
 Don’t you know
 I can’t tell you how to make it go
 No matter what I do, how hard I try
 I can’t seem to convince myself why
 I’m stuck on the outside
 
 [Chorus x2]
