Linkin Park - Given Up











Wake in a sweat again
Another day's been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like I'll never leave this place
There's no escape

I'm my own worst enemy

[Chorus]
I've given up, I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away, I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

I don't know what to take
Thought I was focused, but I'm scared
I'm not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help, somehow, somewhere
And no one cares

I'm my own worst enemy

[Chorus]

Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my
Put me out of my fucking misery!

Track #2 in Linkin Park's new album Minutes to Midnight. First time I've heard so much ballad in the band's album, first time they've used vulgarities in their songs. Some of the tracks are just plain boring, but some things stay the same. For one, Chester's screaming still leaves me wondering what his throat is made of. I don't agree with the saying that "he's getting old, so he can't scream anymore". Total bullcrap. Another thing, their songs' lyrics still remain as real as ever. Those words seriously ring true, man. And that's one of the reasons I love the band. My favourite song is Leave Out All The Rest, next is What I've Done, the first single.

Hmm. Why can't my voice go hoarse like Chester's? haha.

Anyway for What I've Done MV ---> click!
The MV really carries real meaning. =)
