Hybrid Theory

Hybrid Theory - By Myself lyrics

rate me

What do I do to ignore them behind me?<br />

Do I follow my instincts blindly?<br />

Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams<br />

And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?<br />

<br />

Do I sit here and try to stand it<br />

Or do I try to catch them red-handed?<br />

Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness<br />

Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?<br />

<br />

Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin<br />

I make the right moves but I'm lost within<br />

I put on my daily facade but then<br />

I just end up getting hurt again by myself, myself<br />

<br />

I ask why, but in my mind I find<br />

I can't rely on myself<br />

I ask why, but in my mind I find<br />

I can't rely on myself<br />

<br />

I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin<br />

It's all too much to take in<br />

I can't hold on to anything watching everything spin<br />

With thoughts of failure sinking in<br />

<br />

If I turn my back I'm defenseless<br />

And to go blindly seems senseless<br />

If I hide my pride and let it all go on<br />

Then they'll take from me till everything is gone<br />

<br />

If I let them go I'll be outdone<br />

But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun<br />

If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer<br />

Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer by myself<br />

<br />

I ask why, but in my mind I find<br />

I can't rely on myself<br />

I ask why, but in my mind I find<br />

I can't rely on myself<br />

<br />

I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin<br />

It's all too much to take in<br />

I can't hold on to anything watching everything spin<br />

With thoughts of failure sinking in<br />

<br />

How do you think I've lost so much<br />

I'm so afraid, I'm out of touch<br />

How do you expect I will know what to do<br />

When all I know is what you tell me to<br />

<br />

Don't you know, I can't tell you how to make it go<br />

No matter what I do, how hard I try<br />

I can't seem to convince myself why<br />

I'm stuck on the outside<br />

<br />

Don't you know, I can't tell you how to make it go<br />

No matter what I do, how hard I try<br />

I can't seem to convince myself why<br />

I'm stuck on the outside<br />

<br />

I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin<br />

It's all too much to take in<br />

I can't hold on to anything watching everything spin<br />

With thoughts of failure sinking in<br />

<br />

I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin<br />

It's all too much to take in<br />

I can't hold on to anything watching everything spin<br />

With thoughts of failure sinking in
