| "Papercut" (Hybrid Theory) Why does it feel like night today? Something in here�s not right today� Why am I so uptight today? Paranoia�s all I got left I don�t know what stressed me first Or how the pressure was fed / but I know just what it feels like To have a voice in the back of my head It�s like a face that I hold inside A face that awakes when I close my eyes A face watches every time I lie A face that laughs every time I fall (And watches everything) So I know that when it�s time to sink or swim That the face inside is hearing me / right beneath my skin It�s like I�m / paranoid lookin� over my back It�s like a / whirlwind inside of my head It�s like I / can�t stop what I�m hearing within It�s like the face inside is right beneath my skin I know I�ve got a face in me points out all the mistakes to me You�ve got a face on the inside too and Your paranoia�s probably worse I don�t know what set me off first but I know what I can�t stand Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is I can�t add up to what you can but Everybody has a face that they hold inside A face that awakes when they close their eyes A face watches every time they lie A face that laughs every time they fall (And watches everything) So you know that when it�s time to sink or swim That the face inside is watching you too / right inside your skin The sun goes down I feel the light betray me |
| "With You" (Hybrid Theory) I woke up in a dream today To the cold of the static / and put my cold feet on the floor Forgot all about yesterday Remembering I�m pretending to be where I�m not anymore A little taste of hypocrisy And I�m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react Even though you�re so close to me You�re still so distant / And I can�t bring you back It�s true / the way I feel Was promised by your face The sound of your voice Painted on my memories Even if you�re not with me I�m with you You / Now I see/ keeping everything inside You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes I hit you and you hit me back We fall to the floor / the rest of the day stands still Fine line between this and that When things go wrong I pretend the past isn�t real Now I'm trapped in this memory And I�m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react Even though you�re close to me You�re still so distant / And I can�t bring you back no No matter how far we've come I can't wait to see tomorrow With you |
| "Crawling" (Hybrid Theory) [chorus:] crawling in my skin these wounds they will not heal fear is how i fall confusing what is real there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface consuming/confusing this lack of self-control i fear is never ending controlling/i can't seem [bridge:] to find myself again my walls are closing in (without a sense of confidence and i'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take) i've felt this way before so insecure [chorus] discomfort,endlessly has pulled itself upon me distracting/reacting against my will i stand beside my own reflection it's haunting how i can't seem...
