LOST IN THE ECHO

Lost In The Echo

LINKIN PARK

You were that foundation

never gonna be another one no

I followed so taken so conditioned

I could never let go

Then sorrow then sickness

then the shock when you flip it on me

So hollow so vicious

so afraid I couldn't let myself see

That I could never be held

back up no I hold myself

Check the rep yep you know my wealth

Forget the rest let them know my hell

There and back yet my soul and sell

Kept respect up the best they fell

Let the rest be the tale they tell

that I was there saying:

In these promises broken deep ego

Each word gets lost in the echo

So one last lie I can see through

This time I finally let you go

Test my will test my heart

Let me tell you how the odd's gonna stack up

Y'all go hard? I go smart

How's that working out for y'all in the back huh?

I've seen that frustration

big cross aloft I don't know

And I've come back unshaken

let down and live and let go

So you can let it be known

I don't hold back I hold my own

I can't be matched

I can't be cloned

I can't C-Flat it ain't my tone

I can't fall back I came to far

Hold myself up and learn my scars

Let the bells ring where ever they are

In these promises broken deep ego

cause I was there saying

Each word gets lost in the echo

So one last lie I can see through

This time I finally let you go

No you can tell 'em all now

I don't back up I don't back down

I don't fold up and I don't bow

I don't row over don't know how

I don't care where the enemies are

Can't be stopped all I know go hard

Won't forget how I got this far

and every time saying:

In these promises broken deep ego

Each word gets lost in the echo

So one last lie I can see through

This time I finally let you go
