LINKIN PARK lyrics : "I can't hold on"

What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams?

And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?

Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness,
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin

I make the right moves but I'm lost within
I put on my daily facade but then
I just end up getting hurt again

By myself [myself]

[x2]

I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can't rely on myself


[Chorus:]
I can't hold on
To what I want when I'm stretched so thin

It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on
To anything watching everything spin

With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I

Turn my back I'm defenseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on then they'll
Take from me 'till everything is gone

If I let them go I'll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer

Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer
by myself [myself]


I can't look around
It's too much to take in
I can't hold back

When I'm stretched so thin
I can't slow down
Watching everything spin

I can't look back
Starting over again


How do you think I've lost so much
I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
How do you expect... I will know what to do

When all I know Is what you tell me to

[x2]

Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try

I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside


[Chorus x2]
