Sad sad day for my childhood and Linkin Park fans all around..
Linkin Park Singer Chester Bennington has passed today in a similar way to Chris Cornell of Soundgarden...
Wish it wasn't true ..heard it on Power 106 our #1 Hip Hop radio station in Southern California.
Thought I would take the time to share the lyrics to my favorite Linkin Park Song
"Papercut"
Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today.
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first
But I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
[x2]
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin [x3]
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun
I feel the light betray me
The sun
I feel the light betray me
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
No way, I had no idea. Wow, all my heroes are dying...
yeah..think this means I am finally aging..
it's even sadder that it's on the birthday of Chris Cornell
Es una muy lamentable noticia, crecí escuchando esta música :(
My daughter called me to break the news. So sad. I am so glad that I was finally able to see them live a few years back. I would play music for my junior high students, and linkin park was always on the playlist. RIP Chester
Also finding out it was Chris Cornell's birthday today from Soundgarden...friend of mine saw both of them play with Linkin Park...really wished I saw them! very cool you did!
