What's your favorite Linkin Park's lyric?

To this day, I still consider HHH the greatest (lyrics wise) song Mike has ever written.

My favorite lyrics from linkin park:

" In these promises are broken, deep below each word get lost in the echo so one last lie I can see through this time I finally let you go go go"

" forfeit the game before somebody else take you out of the frame put your name to shame cover up your face you can’t run the race the pace is too fast you won’t last."

I love so many… but one of my favorites is from Lost in the Echo,

“I can’t fall back, I came too far.
Hold myself up and love my scars.”

And I don’t even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So I’m picking up the pieces, now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again.

Not a favorite, but closest to me :smiley:

I love the lyrics to In Pieces especially but I do love other songs as well. This song holds a special place in my heart to all of my so called “friends” holding secrets away from me and falling out with them in the end.

Telling me to go
But hands beg me to stay
Your lips say that you love
Your eyes say that you hate

There’s truth in your lies
Doubt in your faith
What you build you lay to waste
There’s truth in your lies
Doubt in your faith
All I’ve got’s what you didn’t take

So I, I won’t be the one
Be the one to leave this
In pieces
And you, you will be alone
Alone with all your secrets
And regrets
Don’t lie

You promise me the sky
Then toss me like a stone
You wrap me in your arms
And chill me to the bone

There’s truth in your lies
Doubt in your faith
All I’ve got’s what you didn’t take

So I, I won’t be the one
Be the one to leave this
In pieces
And you, you will be alone
Alone with all your secrets
And regrets
Don’t lie

So I, I won’t be the one
Be the one to leave this
In pieces
And you, you will be alone
Alone with all your secrets
And regrets
Don’t lie

Yeah, I think Minutes To Midnight has some of their best lyrics, along with A Thousand Suns and The Hunting Party. Those three albums really show how good Linkin Park can be with lyrics, should they put in the effort.

Can we open the thread up a bit to talk about our favorite lyrics in general? Because I have a ton of lyrics that aren’t LP that I think are so intelligent that I would love to talk about.

My brother had a book he would hold with pride,
A little red cover with a broken spine.
On the back, he handwrote a quote inside…
“When the rich wage war, it’s the poor who die”

And

Cause the love, that you lost, wasn’t worth what it cost… And in time you’ll be glad it’s gone!

When my time comes
forget the wrong that I’ve done
help me leave behind some reasons to be missed :heart:

“The hardest part of ending is starting again!”
“We are the fortunate ones, who’d ever faced oppression\s gun
We are the fortunate ones, imitations of
Rebellion”
“God bless us everyone, will we burn inside a fire of a thousand suns?
For the sins of our hands
The sins of our tongues
The sins of our father
The sins of our young”
“You can try intimidation
Or You can try to ignore
But when the time comes calling
Yeah! You’re gonna get yours!”

From now on i stop, because i love most of the lyrics and this may become A LONG post

there are many…literally

  • I screamed at myself cause there’s nobody else to fight
    I don’t lose i don’t win if i am wrong then i am halfway right

  • When they turn down the lights
    I hear my battle symphony

  • You told me yes you held me high
    and i believed when you told that lie
    i played soldier you played king
    and struck me down when i kiss that ring
    You lost that right to hold that crown
    i built you up but you let me down
    So when you fall i take my turn
    and fan the flames your blazes burn!

  • This is war with no wepons
    marching with no steppin’
    murder with no killin’
    Illin’ every direction

These are my favourite lyrics too…
I especially love the “so when you fall …” part!! Savage!

I know!! They are just amazing!! I still wonder how mike wrote.so great !!
