[doppelganger]

The music, the style, the emotion. What an era.

[linkincode]

Straight up the best band. Nobody compares

[debjitguin]

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

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
I know it's not alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

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

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside, I realize
That I'm the one confused

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
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

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

I don't know 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
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

This sounded so much like the album one. Really great live performance, RIP Chester.

[spirefactsyt]

This performance is just too good. Perfect vocal chord closure.

[namo-bf]

The beginning is the best..I just love the moments Mike and Ches perform together.

“Chester sang like an angel and screamed like a demon”

[malakisands]

This song summed up the way Chester was and trying to break away. I was fortunate to have seen LP on each album tour. What happens to many artists is even with having so many people focusing on them they still feel alone. Chris Cornell so saw many pass that his inside demons got him. With anyone in life having someone to talk to who does not judge us but is there as a friend makes such a difference

Even after a century Linkin Park won't be listened as classics. Their style will still stay modern.

[helgefrederiksen]

What a goosebumping, vulnerable, melancolic voice....beautiful and missed.

[pticatori]

Imagine 15 y/o you, standing somewhere in the crowd and listening to LP live. Another fifteen-or-so years later you would say this was the best day of your life. And I bet it was, cuz mine would definitely be.

[jamzzuk]

it took years, but were here, this is years ahead of its time... depth perfect, pure poetry in musical form, I feel close to something in this, I have been there.. I love it acknowledges it

[Emily-xsst]

You can just see the pain on Chester's face in the beginning when Mike was playing the piano 🥺

[dedeozil]

The best vocal in the world 🥺🥺🥺 legend of my hearts

[lucasteixeira]

A voz desse cara não tem diferença do ao vivo pra voz de estúdio, muito foda!

[bairashid]

Tell me Chester's voice aint a masterpiece?!

[michaelcarrasco]

Five days clean from heroine so far. This song helped me. I relate so much to LP, thank you.

[go-wzcs]

Легенду можно слушать вечно, Люблю тебя Линкин парк, Люблю тебя легенда Честер Бенингтон🙏🙏🙏

[lucasgaiva]

what a voice... what a monster he was!!! Chester will live forever with us.

[justbuzzed]
