    Over the summer I wrote a couple Linkin Park remixes on these message boards... Well now I'm starting a whole Meteora remix compliation called "Alterations". My first two songs on it are a remix of Numb called "N//MB" that is written to feature Amy Lee and Aaron Lewis and a remix of Hit the Floor called "HT/ TH FLOR" that is written to feature Slipknot. Anybody who wants to add their Linkin Park remix lyrics you're welcome to add them here. So here are N//MB and HT/ TH FLOR:

    N//MB:
    FEATURING AARON LEWIS AND AMY LEE

    (piano intro has Amy Lee and Mike Shinoda playing piano while Joe Hahn plays the Numb intro on the sampler pad)
    (Aaron plays acoustic guitar with Brad Delson throughout the song)

    Aaron Lewis:
    I’m tired of being what you want me to be
    Feeling so faithless
    Lost under the surface
    I don’t know what you’re expecting
    Put under the pressure
    Of walking in your shoes

    Amy Lee:
    Caught in the undertow/Just caught in the undertow

    Aaron Lewis:
    Every step that I take is another mistake to you

    (Chester Bennington, Amy Lee, and Mike Shinoda join Aaron Lewis for the chorus.
    Amy Lee and Mike Shinoda sing the lines in parentheses while Chester and Aaron harmonize hold out the lines without parentheses)
    Chorus:

    I’ve become so numb
    (I can’t feel you there)
    Become so weary
    (So much more aware)
    I’m becoming this
    (All I want to do)
    Is be more like me
    (And be less like you)

    Aaron Lewis and Chester Bennington:

    Can’t you see that you’re smothering me?
    Holding too tightly
    Afraid to lose control
    Cause everything that thought I would be
    Has fallen apart right in front of you

    Amy and Mike:
    Caught in the undertow/Just caught in the undertow

    Aaron and Chester:
    Every step that I take is another mistake to you

    Amy and Mike:
    Caught in the undertow/Just caught in the undertow

    Aaron and Chester:
    And every moment you make me waste
    Is than I can take

    Chorus:

    I’ve become so numb
    (I can’t feel you there)
    Become so weary
    (So much more aware)
    I’m becoming this
    (All I want to do)
    Is be more like me
    (And be less like you)

    Aaron Lewis and Amy Lee:
    But I know
    I may end up failing too
    But I know
    You were just like me
    With someone disappointed in you

    Chorus:

    I’ve become so numb
    (I can’t feel you there)
    Become so weary
    (So much more aware)
    I’m becoming this
    (All I want to do)
    Is be more like me
    (And be less like you)






    HT/ TH FLOR:
    FEATURING SLIPKNOT

    (Begins with huge percussive intro with Slipknot percussionists and Rob Bourdon playing low-tuned drums and DJ Hahn is playing the original Hit the Floor sample with DJ Sid Wilson playing a lowered version of the sample)

    (Mike Shinoda sings through a vintage mic on the verses)

    There are so many
    Times that people
    Have tried to look inside of me
    Wondering what I think of you
    And I protect you out of courtesy
    Too many times that I’ve
    Held on while I was losing my grip
    You were pushing me away
    Afraid to say what I need to say
    Too many
    Things that you’ve said about
    When I’m not around
    You think having the upper hand
    Means you’ve got to keep putting me down
    But I’ve had too many stand-offs with you
    It’s about as much as I can take
    Just wait until the upper hand
    Is mine (…mine… mine… mine…)

    (Corey Taylor of Slipknot comes in and sings with Chester)

    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Watch it drop
    (MAKING YOUR HEART STOP)
    Just before you hit the floor
    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Missed you’re shot
    (MAKING YOU’RE HEART STOP)
    You’ve think you won

    And then it’s all GONE
    So many people like me
    Put so much trust in all your lies
    So concerned with what you thin
    To just say what we feel inside
    So many people like me
    Walk on eggshells all day long
    All I know is that all I want
    Is to feel like I’m not stepped on
    There are so many things you say
    That makes me feel that you’ve crossed the line
    What goes up will surely fall
    And I’m counting down the time
    Cause I’ve had so many stand-offs with you
    It’s about as much as I can stand
    So I’m waiting until the upper hand
    Is mine

    (Corey Taylor of Slipknot comes in and sings with Chester)

    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Watch it drop
    (MAKING YOUR HEART STOP)
    Just before you hit the floor
    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Missed you’re shot
    (MAKING YOU’RE HEART STOP)
    You’ve think you won

    And then it’s all GONE

    I know I’ll never trust a single thing you say
    You knew those lies would divide us
    But you lied anyway
    And all your lies have got you floating
    Us above us all
    (BUT WHAT GOES UP HAS GOT TO FALL)

    (Corey Taylor of Slipknot comes in and sings with Chester)

    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Watch it drop
    (MAKING YOUR HEART STOP)
    Just before you hit the floor
    (ONE MINUTE YOU’RE ON TOP)
    The next you’re not
    Missed you’re shot
    (MAKING YOU’RE HEART STOP)
    You’ve think you won

    DNT ST@Y (ft Matt Davies from Funeral For A Friend)

    (Mike talks this over the intro drum sample)

    I need to remember to breathe
    Just to take one last gasp of air
    Before it leaves me pale

    (Matt Davies screams the chorus to start the main part of the song)

    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    Don't stay

    (Mike, slow rap)

    Sometimes I gotta remember to breathe
    Just to keep me alive
    And take in one gasp of air
    But in disbelief im starting to pale
    Take one last breath
    Inhale

    (Matt and Chester scream the chorus)

    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    Don't stay

    (Mike, slow rap)

    Sometimes I gotta remember to breathe
    Just to keep me alive
    And take in one gasp of air
    But in disbelief im starting to pale
    Take one last breath
    Inhale

    (Matt and Chester scream the chorus)

    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    Don't stay


    (Chester sings the bridge calmly before exploding on the last two lines)

    I dont need to look at you anymore
    I can't help but be ignored
    I need one more day
    TO GET YOU
    TO STAY AWAY FROM ME

    (Matt and Chester scream the chorus)

    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    I dont want you to stay
    And get too close to me
    Your becoming another memory
    All I want you to do is
    Don't stay

    BRKING TH HABIT:
    FEATURING DAVE MATTHEWS AND BOYD TINSLEY of the DAVE MATTHEWS BAND

    (Mike Shinoda starts to play the acoustic piano and Dave Matthews plays the piano part on acoustic guitar and Boyd Tinsley starts playing his violin)

    (Dave Matthews solo):
    Memories consume
    Like opening the wound
    I’m picking me apart again
    You all assume
    I’m safe here in my room
    (I wish I could start again)

    (Chester Bennington solo):
    I don’t want to be the one
    The battles always choose
    Cause inside I realize
    That I’m the one confused

    (Chester and Dave harmonize):

    I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
    Or why I have to scream
    I don’t know why I instigate
    And say what I don’t mean
    I don’t know how I got this way
    Or if its worth the fight
    So I’m breaking the habit
    Breaking the habit tonight

    (Dave Matthews and Mike Shinoda):
    Clutching my cure
    I tightly lock the door
    I try to catch my breath again
    I hurt much more
    Than anytime before
    I had no options left again

    (Chester Bennington solo):
    I don’t want to be the one
    The battles always choose
    Cause inside I realize
    That I’m the one confused

    (Chester and Dave harmonize):

    I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
    Or why I have to scream
    I don’t know why I instigate
    And say what I don’t mean
    I don’t know how I got this way
    Or if it’s worth the fight
    So I’m breaking the habit
    Breaking the habit tonight

    (Dave Matthews solo):

    I’ll paint it on the walls
    Cause I’m the one at fault
    I’ll never fight again
    And this is how it ends

    (Dave Matthews, Mike Shinoda, and Chester Bennington harmonize):
    I don’t what’s worth fighting for
    Or why I have to scream
    But now I have some clarity
    To show you what I mean
    I don’t know how I got this way
    Or if it’s worth the fight
    So I’m breaking the habit
    Breaking the habit
    I’m breaking the habit
    Tonight

    FRM T3H INSID3 (Featuring Snoop Dogg)

    (Snoop)
    Hey yo,
    Its Linkin Park and Snoop Doggy Dogg
    Hittin up this mess for the remix
    Haha check it out
    I wanna take everything from the inside
    And multiply it until theres enough to throw it away
    I swear that this time, I shouldn't trust myself with you

    (Chester echos)
    You....you....you...

    (Mike)
    Trying not to break but theres no end to this deciet
    Everytime I try to break back up on my feet
    I get held back by all the tension
    All I ever think about is curing this
    And all the pressure surrounding me
    And how I want to regain my trust in you

    (Chester singing)
    You....You.....You...
    Take everything I have on the inside
    And throw it all away
    You....You.....You...
    Take everything I have on the inside
    And throw it all away

    (Snoop Dogg)
    I wont trust myself with you
    I wont waste my energy on you
    I just want you to give me some space
    And let me be alone
    I wont trust my self with you
    Won't waste my energy on you

    (Chester screams)
    LEAVE ME BE ALONE

    (Chester and Snoop harmonize)
    You....You.....You...
    Take everything I have on the inside
    And throw it all away
    You....You.....You...
    Take everything I have on the inside
    And throw it all away

    Sum wer I Bl*ng
    (Featuring jon Davis and DJ lethal)


    [Intro: Joe opens with samples and Dj lethal scratch's quitely over it]


    chester: When this began
    Mike:I had nothing to say
    And I 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
    Jon:Just stuck/ hollow and alone
    And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own


    Chester:I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
    I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
    Erase all the pain till it’s gone
    Jon:I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
    I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
    Somewhere I belong

    [Intro sample plays again but faster tempo]

    Mike: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
    Jon:Nothing to gain/ hollow and alone
    And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

    Chester:I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
    I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
    Erase all the pain till it’s gone
    Jon:I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
    I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
    Somewhere I belong


    Chester and Jon:
    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 till I break away from me
    I will break away, I'll find myself today


    Mike:I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
    Jon:SOMEWHERE I BELONG!!!
    Mike:I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
    Jon:SOMEWHERE I BELONG!!!
    Mike:Erase all the pain till it’s gone
    Jon:SOMEWHERE I BELONG!!!
    Mike:I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
    Jon:SOMEWHERE I BELONG!!!
    Mike:I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
    Chester and Jon:SOMEWHERE I BELONG!!!

    Jon:I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
    I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
    Somewhere I belong

    Mike:And the fault is my own
    Chester:AND THE FAULT IS MY OWN!!!

    [Jon plays bag pipes while Dj lethal samples this verse word by word. Similar to behind blue eyes and Mike and Chester sing queitly along to Dj lethals samples]
    I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
    I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
    Somewhere I belong

    [Outro: Joe closes with samples and Dj lethal scratch's quitely over it as jon plays bagpipes]
