View Full Version : "Meteora" Lyrics
Willstar
03-05-2003, 09:05 PM
For the entire afternoon I'll be personally transcribing lyrics from Linkin Park's live performance in Nottingham, England Monday night where they played "Don't Stay," "Somewhere I Belong," "Lying From You," "Faint," and "From The Inside." I will work hard with what I have to get the most accurate lyrics from these live performances.
But, remember: These are only temporary and may or may not be 100% correct. Until Meteora comes out none of us can be too sure. :)
Please click here (http://www.lpassociation.com/index.php?p=lyricset&set=74) to view the lyrics page and check back because when I complete a song I'm adding it to the database.

Correction on Dont Stay:
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and
Don't stay
Change "Just give me my life back" to "Just give me myself back". Mike's part in the chorus sounds exactly the same in both parts to me.
Otherwise, great job :)

Yep, thanks. I got that. :)
Just a note: The lyrics are done, they are now being revised. :)

Correction on SIB. just a lil' mistake.
When this began
I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
I was confused
And I let it all out to find
That I'm not the only person with these things in mind
Inside of me
But all the vacancy, the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
Nothing to lose
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I want to heal
I want to feel what I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've felt(not held) so long
Erase all the pain 'til it's gone
I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
I was confused
Looking everywhere only to find
That it's not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
So what am I
What do I have but negativity
'Cause I can't justify the way everyone is looking at me
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I want to heal
I want to feel what I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've felt so long
Erase all the pain 'til it's gone
I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything 'til I break away from me
I will break away, I'll find myself today
I want to heal
I want to feel what I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've felt so long
Erase all the pain 'til it's gone
I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm somewhere I belong
I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

No, it's held. It's on a thread on the LPMB that Slice made with the official lyrics. :rolleyes: *changes it back*
Willstar

Anyway, the new lyrics are done and are 100% accurate (for now) in my opinion. Once we get clearer versions it'll be easier.

It's not, Slice posted the OFFICIAL WRITTEN BY LINKIN PARK THEMSELVES lyrics on the LPMB.. omfg. LP wouldn't get their own lyrics wrong.

i know that they say "felt" 'cuz Chester mouth is like an F when he is saying that part. plus I put the closed captions of my tv when the vid is on and Chester says "felt". Also, it's "wanna" instead of "want to."

"Wanna" isn't a word... :rolleyes:
I hate people who don't know what English is. They piss me off.

Honestly, now that I think of it.. it can go either way..
"I want to let go of the pain I felt so long"
OR
"I want to let go of the pain I've held so long"
Think about it.. it's more than likely "I've held" than "I felt," though. It makes more grammatical sense.
Plus your mouth makes sort of an "F" looking thingy like Linkin Master said when you say "I've" too.

No, you dont hold pain. You feel pain.
Held doesnt make sence if you ask me, felt sounds much better.

You can hold pain... it's called keeping it bottled up inside.

Either way, it still makes sense.
And either way, "wanna" and "want to" are the same thing.

In the Hybrid Theory album booklet, the lyrics for 'Crawling' are wrong. ;x. But that's not their fault so why did I bring that up :lol:

You can hear an "f" sound during the first part of the chorus. Just because the official lyrics are announced, doesn't always mean that they say that in the song. In Project 86's CD Booklet for "Drawing Black Lines", I noticed about 7 or 8 parts on the Cd when there were lyrics that weren't said in the song.

LP didn't print those. It says "reprinted with permission" after the lyrics.

Akuma, in regards to you getting all pissy that your lyrics were said to be wrong, get over it. What you don't realize is that Linkin Park, sometimes, when playing live, don't stick with their written lyrics. I've heard With You with a few words changed around lots of time, same for some other songs, though right now I"m too lazy to come up w/ some examples besides With You.

Ok, my bad. I've listened to SIB again, and I know where the "f" sound comes from in the chorus. "I've" and "held" kind of flow right into each other, and create an "f" sound between the two words. What Akuma has posted up in terms of the SIB lyrics is correct.

Akuma is right. It's held so long. the lyrics are on linkinpark.com, and they are right.
