[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Nothin' ever stops all these thoughts and the pain attached to them
Sometimes I wonder why this is happenin'
It's like nothin' I could do would distract me when
I think of how I shot myself in the back again
Cause, from the infinite words, I could say I–
Put all the pain you gave to me on display
But didn't realise–instead of settin' it free
I took what I hated and made it a part of me
It never goes away (2×)
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
And, now, you've become a part of me–you'll always be right here
You've become a part of me (You'll always be my fear)
I can't separate–myself from what I've done
Giving up a part of me, I've let myself become you
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
Hearin' your name, my memories come back again
I remember when it started happenin'
I'd see you in every thought I had and, then
My thoughts slowly found words attached to them
And I knew, as they escaped away
I was committin' myself to 'em and, every day
I regret sayin' those things, cause, now, I see
That I took what I hated and made it a part of me
It never goes away (2×)
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
And now, you've become a part of me, you'll always be right here
You've become a part of me (You'll always be my fear)
I can't separate–myself from what I've done
Giving up a part of me, I've let myself become you
[Bridge: Mike & Chester]
It never goes away (2×)
(Get away from me!)
Gimme my space back, you gotta just– (Go!)
Everything comes down to memories of– (You!)
I've kept it in but, now, I'm lettin' you– (Know!)
I've let you go, so get away from me
Gimme my space back, you gotta just– (Go!)
Everything comes down to memories of– (You!)
I've kept it in but, now, I'm lettin' you– (Know!)
I've let you go!
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
And, now, you've become a part of me–you'll always be right here
You've become a part of me (You'll always be my fear)
I can't separate–myself from what I've done
Giving up a part of me, I've let myself become you
[Outro: Chester Bennington]
I've let myself become you
I've let myself become lost inside these thoughts of you
Giving up a part of me, I've let myself become you
