Maisie

Personal song #1
© Linkin Park, New Divide, 2009 I remembered black skies, the lightning all around me

I remembered each flash, as time began to blur

Like a startling sign, that fate had finally found me

and your voice was all I heard, that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong

to wash this memory clean

Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes

Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between

Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide

There was nothing in sight, but memories left abandoned

There was nowhere to hide, the ashes fell like snow

And the ground caved in, between where we were standing

In every loss, in every lie

In every truth that you'd deny

and each regret, and each goodbye

was a mistake too great to hide

Personal song #2
© Linkin Park, Easier to Run, 2003 Something has been taken from deep inside of me

A secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see

Wounds so deep they never show, they never go away

Like moving pictures in my head, for years and years, they've played

If I could change, I would take back the pain

I would retrace every wrong move that I made, I would

It's easier to run

Replacing this pain with something numb

It's so much easier to go

Than face all this pain here all alone

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past

Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have

Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back

And never moving forward so there'd never be a past

Just washing it aside

All of the helplessness inside

Pretending I don't feel misplaced

Is so much simpler than change
