Lyrics:
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can't run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won't last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you're never wrong
You live what you've learned
You have to act like you're someone
You live what you've learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what you've learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what you've learned

You love the things I say I do
The way I hurt myself again, just to get back at you
You take away, when I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you're never wrong
You live what you've learned
You have to act like you're someone
You live what you've learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what you've learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what you've learned

Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can't run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won't last
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can't run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won't last

You like to think you're never wrong
You live what you've learned
You have to act like you're someone
You live what you've learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what you've learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what you've learned
You like to think you're never wrong(Forfeit the game)
You live what you've learned
You have to act like you're someone(Forfeit the game)
You live what you've learned
You want someone to hurt like you(Forfeit the game)
You live what you've learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what you've learned

The year was 2002. It was a Sunday evening. Our mom irons our weekly school clothes. This song comes in. My brother increases the TV volume. We argue as to who's going to rap Mike's verse. Life was simple. I miss my mom.

Popular Opinion: This is the best band of all time.

I know everybody loves and misses Chester. His voice was awesome between his singing and his screaming. But Shinoda certainly adds so much with his rap style.

24 years later and I still know every word.

RIP Legend.

This song was so crazy. Actually the whole hybrid theory cd is crazy. Really changed how music was made

[SlavLatino]

This healed me. Fan since 2000. It’s been a long 24 years man ❤ thank you guys for your talent and music.

[Tony-]

This screams early 2000's
Spiky hair, long shirts with baggy jeans, skateboarding
Fast and furious was released
Best time of my life
And of course Linkin Park! :)



Edit : Rest in peace Chester

[MakeupLichelle]

Happy to have been alive in a generation where Chester existed <3 Legend lives on! R.I.P Chester! Miss You

My gramma told my mom about Elvis Presley, My mom told me about Michael Jackson, and One day when I have kids, I will definitely tell them about Chester Bennington.
