[Linkin Park - Waiting for the End lyrics]
Yeah, yo this is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a
Riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
And though the words sound steady
Something empty's within them we say "yeah"
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there
Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it
Let it all disappear yeah
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade
This life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasn't so
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade
This life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
Yeah, yeah
What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right
But that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what
It's like moving on
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
(All I want to do is trade
This life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got)
This is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
(I'm holding on to what I haven't got)
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty's within them we say "yeah"
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there
(Holding on to what I haven't got)
Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we get it, forget it
Let it all disappear
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a
Riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
And though the words sound steady
Something empty's within them we say "yeah"
With fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something
That's invisible there
Cause we're living at the mercy of
The pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it
Let it all disappear yeah
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It's out of my control
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It's hard to let you go
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade

Holding on to what I haven't got
Sitting in an empty room
