Hybrid Theory 1999 :: Linking Park

She can't hide no matter how hard she tries
Her secret disguised behind the lies
And at night she cries away her pride
With eyes shut tight staring at her inside
All her friends know why she can't sleep at night
All her family asking if she's alright
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell
Well all she's got to do is stop kidding herself
She can only fool herself for so long [x3]
I'm too weak to face me
(she can only fool herself)

I never know just why you run so far away, far away from me [x2]

When it comes to how to live his life he can't be told
Says he's got it all under control
Thinks he knows it's not a problem he's stuck with
But in reality it'd be a problem to just quit
An addict and he can't hold the reins
The pain is worse cause his friends have it the same
Tries to slow down the problem he's got
But can't get off the carousel until he makes it stop
He can only fool himself for so long [x3]
I'm too weak to face me
(he can only fool himself)

Fly with me under the wings I gave you,
Try to be closer to me and I'll save you

Hybrid Theory 1999 :: Linking Park

Just do something to tell you who I am, ya know?

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

I've been taking into crates ever since I was livin in space
Before the ratrace, before monkeys had human traits
Mastered numerology and bigbang theology
Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessin it
And chincheckin kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what I'm made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all of the emcees that hate us
So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity let icons be bygones
I fire bomb ghostly notes haunt this
I've tried threats but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit with or without an accomplis
(Mixed media)
The stamp of approval is on this

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Sprayin bright day over what you might say
Blood type krylon
Technicolor type A
On highways right with road rage I'm patient to win
The cage and the tin to bounce all around
In surround sound devouring the scene
Subliminal gangrene paintings
Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy madness
Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics
Fourth dimension, combat convention
Write rhymes at ease while the tracks stand at attention (Attention)
Meant to put you away with the pencil
Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile
While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws
Spin, blah blah blah blah
You can say you saw

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

Hybrid Theory 1999 :: Linking Park

Part of me won’t go away
Everyday reminded how much I hate it
Weighted against the consequences
Can’t live without it so it’s senseless
Wanna cut it out of my soul
And just live with a gaping hole
Take control of my life
And wash out all the burnt taste
I made the problems in the first place
Hang my head low ‘cause it’s part of me
Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me
Heard of me the routine scar
New cuts cover where the old ones are
And now I’m sick of this
I can’t stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade on my sanity
I rather not even be then the man that’s staring in the mirror through me


Cut myself free willingly
Stop just what’s killing me

I feel it everyday
I feel I made my way
I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside
Swallowing me

Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it
Once it’s been dealt with you feel like you’ve been touched by something angelic
And then melted down into a pool of peace
Cease to be the animal you used to be
Remove the broken parts you know were wrong
And feel the karma when the problem’s all gone
And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you can’t let be
Memories of the last fight to free yourself
Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well
And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart
Where your insides bruised
You can live if you’re willing to
Put a stop to just what’s killing you

(Alive in me, inside of me, a part of me screams away silently
This part of me won’t go away, part of me won’t go away
Everywhere I look around I see how everyone aught to be
Every time I see myself I see there’s always something wrong with me)

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me

Hybrid Theory 1999 :: Linking Park

Watch as the room rocks
Mentally moonwalk
Mixed media slang
Banging in your boom box verbal violence
Lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish
You can’t tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesn’t make you an MC
With your lack of skill and facility
You’re killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes
You’re not an emcee if someone else writes your lines
And rapping over rock doesn’t make you a pioneer
Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years
But now they’re getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of it’s real
You want to be an emcee you’ve got to study the skill

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally you don’t have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop you’ve heard is top 40
And your record company is completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle you can't hack it
React with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
It's taken decades for emcees to establish this
You’re new to hip hop and welcome if your serious
But not on the mic
Leave that to the experienced

Hybrid Theory 1999 :: Linking Park

Where should I start
Disjointed heart
I’ve got no commitment
To my own flesh and blood
Left all alone
Far from my home
No one to hear me, to heal my ill heart, I

Keep it locked up inside

Cannot express
To the point I’ve regressed
If anger’s a gift, then I guess I’ve been blessed, I

Keep it locked up inside
Keep my distance from your lies

It’s too late to love me now
You helped me to show me
It’s too late to love me now
You don't even know me

Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me)
Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep it locked up inside
Keep my distance from your lies

Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Break)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace (Me)
Breaking a part of my heart to find release (Too)
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace
Breaking a part of my heart to find release
Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep my distance
Keep my distance
Keep my distance
Keep my distance

Spit drips from the jaw of the witless witness
Cryptic colloquialism shifts your midrift
Dark all I do embark the shadows
Involved with my thought catalog, analogue, rap catalog
Keep my distance, and fear resistance, hurt by persistance
The twisted web of tangled lies
Strangles my hope to waste and numbs the taste
And I'm forced to face these hate crimes
Against the state of being
Feeling the weight-less-ness pressed between the ceiling
Reeling around room
Riding a bubble of sound proof
It's the frequency making you
Sha-Shake with every boom
Involuntary muscle contraction
Ignoring and drinking musical gas fueled euphoria
The sound pounds to make the dead flush
To have you a head rush with red thoughts and said stuff

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

I heard that you're leavin - this sleepy little town
The bright lights must have caught your eye cuz you ain't hangin' round
Ya know people been talkin' - they say you're makin' a mistake
Gotta get on that greyhound and forget about what they say

Just walk on by - walk on by
Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high
Just walk on by

I've heard bad things about the city and i'm told that they're true
Better watch out for those guys out there they're gonna hit on you
So don't talk to no strangers - no it ain't your style
Don't give up when the chips are down - just turn around and smile

Just walk on by - walk on by
Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high
Just walk on by - ya walk on

You're old enough to know why - you're old enough to know why

Now you're standing at the station - got a ticket in your hand
Guess you got you're mind made up - gotta get out while you can
Don't say I never told ya - now the rest is up to you
Those streets can be like a battlefield - when it's hard to make it thru...

Just walk on by - walk on by
Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high
Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by
You're a little bit lonely you're a little bit shy
Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by
Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high
Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by
You're a little bit lonely you're a little bit shy
Just walk on by

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

She was the girl in the very front row
Always waitin' after the show
She was the queen of the hollywood hills
Knew the stars, the bars, the pimps and pills
Somebody's climbin' on a greyhound tonight
Too much lipstick and her dress real tight
Looks like a woman but she ain't quite
No, not quite

She's somebody's baby
She's somebody's mother's child
She may look like a lady
But she's just a flower grown wild

They never knew you by your childhood name
But they were drawn to you like moths to a flame
Nobody saw the tears in your silk n' lace
Or the scarred little kid behind your face
Just remember when you hold her tight
What you're holding in your arms tonight
She's no angel, but that's alright
Ya that's alright

She's somebody's baby
She's somebody's mother's child
She may look like a lady
But she's just a flower grown wild

Just another little pretty thing
Another angel with a broken wing
Who fell to earth 'neath the hollywood hills
Amid the stars and the bars, the pimps and pills

Just like the girl on the movie screen
She played it up until the very last scene
The picture faded and the day was done
Went home to nothin but a loaded gun

Somebody's climbing on a greyhound tonight
A little angel flyin' out of sight
Looks like a woman but she ain't quite
No, not quite

BRYAN ADAMS LYRICS

"Mysterious Ways"

Just when I thought I had it figured out
Just when I thought I had the answers
You came along so full of promises
Full of grace and second chances

For awhile I tried to shut it out
For awhile I tried to fight it
But now I see that there just ain't no use
There ain't no reason to deny it
Oh - ya just never know, no you don't

The world is full of mysteries
Full of magic and of wonder
There's so much more than what we see
Can't explain the spell I'm under
Everytime I look upon your face
I'm constantly amazed
And love moves through my days
In mysterious ways

They say the heart is shaped just like a fist
Holding in its feelings
I say the heart is like an open hand
Holding out and healing
Oh wherever you go - don't ya know

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

It's funny what goes through your mind
When you think of times you spent together
Funny but when I think back why we broke up
The reasons seem so small
One day she's with me everything's fine
Sayin' somethin' sounded like I love you
The next week I see her walkin' down the street with someone else
Probably sayin' the same thing
It's doin' my brain in...

I got nothin - goin' nowhere
Tired of under achieving
I keep searchin' - nothin's workin'
It's not enough just to be breathin'
I need somethin' to believe in

It's funny what goes on in your head
When you think about the way things come together
But now I think back why things had to change
The reasons seem so small
Cruel twist of fate keepin' me awake
When I need to sleep to take away the hurtin'
But now I got time on my hands tryin' to understand
But there ain't no explainin'
It's doin' my brain in...r

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

My hands are shakin' - my heart skips a beat
I can't focus - I can't speak
It's like i'm underwater
And i'm going deep - I need ya around me

Oxygen - every moment
Oxygen - everyday
I can't live without it - don't take it away
I need to breath you in - like oxygen

Losin' cohesion - I'm losin' my mind
I'm tryin' to resist it - to stay out of the light
It's like I'm drownin' - in the deepest sea
I need ya around me

Oxygen - every moment
Oxygen - everyday
I can't live without it no - don't take it away
I need to breath you in

Oxygen every moment - oxygen everyday
I can't live without it - don't take it away
I need to breath you in - over and over again

My pulse racin' - my heads in a spin
I need to see you darlin' - cuz you're my oxygen

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

How come the best ones are always taken
What I see when I see ya - is love in the makin'
Something about timin', something about fate
Gotta go with the feeling - not a moment too waste

Bring it on bring it on -ya - I was born ready
I'm a son of a strong man - i'm rock steady
Everything you throw - I can see it coming
Ain't gonna be no TKO just a lot of lovin'

Cuz opposites attract this way
If day is night and night is day
If loving you is wrong then babe - wrong is right
And I ain't losin' the fight

Take it on, take it on, take it on - no second guessing
Dressin' up a situation - we should be undressing
Hear the bell ringing - seconds out round two
I got my eyes on the prize, and the prize is you

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

I like the way we are - I love what we've become
When i'm in your arms - I know i've found the one
I love your kiss me mouth - and your static touch
Its just the way you are - that makes me feel so much

No one could ever know - what we're like alone
Rollin' round like rain - we're a midnight storm
Like a river rising - I feel it thru your skin
When we're together - I never want it to end

I thought I'd seen everything - til I saw you
I thought I'd been everywhere - til I'd been with you
I thought that everyone knew what I knew
I thought I'd seen everything - til I saw you

I like the way we are - like a raging fire
Burning up the night, burning with desire
You're such a sweet temptation - you know I can't resist
Electricity, hey every time we kiss

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

We'll save ourselves a bottle
Of California red
We'll drink it on a Tuesday
Let it go straight to our heads

And we'll eat from good china
And make love on linen sheets
Just like there's no tomorrow
No surrender, no retreat

I can feel it in my bones
And I know it in my heart
Tomorrow may be rainin' but tonight we have the stars
We may always be together
Or miles and miles apart
Tomorrow may be rainin' but tonight we have the stars

We were young and we were foolish
We were easy to deceive
Said we'd be in love forever
And it was easy to believe

Well you and I we had our moments
Our devils and our doubts
But the time we spend together
We gotta make it count

[Chorus]

So let's hold on to this moment
Cause it's all we've really got

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

She's got a way - of getting inside your soul
She'd breach the walls of jericho
Make you fall like virgin snow
She's got a smile, makes you forget the things
You were only just thinking about
It kind of turns me inside out
And if I try to conceal, she's got a way to reveal

I feel so naked - I feel so totally exposed
It's such a mystery, how she seems to know, every part of me
I feel so shaken - and it's like everybody knows
Whenever she touches me, no one else can feel, as much as me
Ya she's got a way

She's got a way - of taming the wild in me
With patience and serenity
I'm drowning in her revery
And I can't run away she's got a way to make me stay

She comes to me like rain falls down my window
Sure as night will follow day - i'll surrender
Ya she's got a way

Bryan Adams Lyrics

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

You always say the things I can believe in
Always say the things I wanna hear
I believe them all - the stories short and tall
I believe you, ya I believe you

You give me love
When love is all I need to live
You gave your word, when words were just superlative
When I was blind, you came and opened up my eyes
Now I feel I can believe in anything
You taught me how to fly on broken wings

You always do the things I can depend on
You're always there every night and day
Everytime i've fallen down - you've always been around
To lift me up again
To set me straight again

Sometimes I find myself on my own
And can't find the road that leads me back home
But you made believe I can do anything
Even fly on broken wings

Bryan Adams 11 :: Bryan Adams Albums

We found our strength - we found our way at last
We found tomorrow - by building on our past
We paid our dues - we stick together - come whatever

We're still standin' - didn't fall to pieces
Never lost our reason - never stopped believin'

We found our wings and now we fly above the wind
You and me - we found what we're looking for

We gave it all - gave our very best
With every fall - we withstood the test
We broke the rules
Had to do it - to get thru it

We found our wings together we found everything
You and me - we found what we're looking for
You made me shine - picked me up when I fell behind
With you - I never need to search no more

We're still standin' - didn't fall to pieces
Never lost our reason - never stopped believin'
Ah never stopped - believin'

We found our wings and together we found everything
You and me - we found what we're looking for
You made me shine picked me up when I fell behind
With you - I never need to search no more
You and me we found what we were looking for

Got to fight another fight - I gotta run another night
Get it out - check it out
I'm on my way and I don't feel right
I gotta get me back - I can't be beat and that's a fact
It's OK - I'll find a way
You ain't gonna take me down no way
Don't judge a thing until you know what's inside it
Dont' push me - I'll fight it
Never gonna give in - never gonna give it up no
If you can't catch a wave then your'e never gonna ride
You can't come uninvited
Never gonna give in - never gonna give up no
You can't take me I'm free

Why did it all go wrong? - I wanna know what's going on
And what's this holding me?

I gotta fight another fight
I gotta fight will all my might
I'm getting out , so check it out

I hear the wind call your name
It calls me back home again
It sparks up the fire - a flame that still burns
Oh it's to you I'll always return
I still feel your breath on my skin
I hear your voice deep within
The sound of my lover - a feeling so strong
It's to you - I'll always belong

Now I know it's true
My every road leads to you
And in the hour of darkness darlin'
Your light gets me through

Wanna swim in your river - be warmed by your sun
Bathe in your waters - cos you are the one
I can't stand the distance - I can't dream alone
I can't wait to see you - Ya I'm on my way home

Oh I hear the wind call your name
The sound that leads me home again
It sparks up the fire - a flame that still burns
Oh, it's to you - I will always return

Well you think that you can take me on
You must be crazy
There ain't a single thing you've done
That's gonna phase me
Oh, but if you want to have a go
I just want to let you know
Get off my back and into my game
Get out of my way and out of my brain
Get outta my face or give it you best shot
I think it's time you better face the fact
Get off my back

You know it's all just a game that I'm playing
Don't think that you can't find a way in
That's what I'm saying
Oh if you want to have a go
I just want to let you know...

I had a dream - of the wide open prairie
I had a dream - of the pale morning sky
I had a dream - that we flew on golden wings
And we were the same - just the same - you and I
Follow your heart - little child of the west wind
Follow the voice - that's calling you home
Follow your dreams - but always, remember me
I am your brother - under the sun

We are like birds of a feather
We are two hearts joined together
We will be forever as one
My brother under the sun

Wherever you hear - the wind in the canyon
Wherever you see - the buffalo run
Wherever you go - I'll be there beside you
Cos you are my brother - my brother under the sun
