Living Things

Living Things is not recently released, but I decided to post this. This 5th studio album of Linkin Park successfully amazed me. Obviously, they appear with few different sounds from the previous albums. For me, LT is a little bit similar with A Thousand Suns, the 4th studio album of Linkin Park. I think ATS and LT are different from the first three albums, Hybrid Theory, Meteora and Minutes To Midnight. In Hybrid Theory and Meteora they made a pure rock style of themselves, while in Minutes To Midnight most of the songs are slow-beated. But in ATS and LT they put a touch of unique sound (I can't explain what it sounds like) that makes these albums are unforgettable. It's been LP's characteristic to do something like that since the beginning, and I always love it somehow haha :D
Okay I think I will now put lyrics of my favorite songs from Living Things, and I took the lyrics from the book of the CD, enjoy!




Lost In The Echo

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 or up no / I hold myself
Check the rep / yep you know mine well
Forget the rest / let them know my hell
There and back / yet my soul ain't 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 below
Each words gets lost in the echo
So for 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 odds 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
Been crossed and lost and told no
And I've come back / unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I don't hold back I hold my own
I can't be mapped / I can't be cloned
I can't C-flat it ain't my tone
I can't fall back I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
'Cause I was there saying...

In these promises broken / deep below
Each words gets lost in the echo
So for 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 roll 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
For every time saying...

In these promises broken / deep below
Each words gets lost in the echo
So for one last lie / I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go
