linkin park - by myself (live in texas) lyrics

[verse 1: mike shinoda]
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 n0body 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 façade‚ but then
i just end up getting hurt again

[pre+chorus: mike shinoda & chester bennington]
by myself (myself)‚ i ask why
but in my mind‚ i find i can’t rely on myself
(myself), i ask why
but in my mind, i find i can’t rely on myself

[chorus: chester bennington & mike shinoda]
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
[verse 2: mike shinoda]
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 ’til 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 k!lled by the questions like a cancer
then i’ll be buried in the silence of the answer

[pre+chorus: mike shinoda & chester bennington]
by myself (myself), i ask why
but in my mind, i find i can’t rely on myself
(myself), i ask why
but in my mind, i find i can’t rely on myself

[interlude: mike shinoda]
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?
[bridge: mike shinoda & chester bennington]
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
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: chester bennington & mike shinoda]
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
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
