09 Linkin Park - Breaking The Habit

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside, I realize
That I'm the one confused
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

❤

Rip Chester

This is me when I'm breaking all the wrongful habits of all my problems and terrible things I've done to hurt people, humiliate people and myself like being inappropriate with woman, getting into trouble and over things I shouldn't based off Chris's problems I was sexual assaulted by my cousin years ago but we were kids and I forgave her in the end.

Chester, may you be now at peace with Jesus 😞🙏☦️❤️

This song helped me through the hardest part of my life. Thank you.

Chester, love and master, legend, unique being, the f***ing boss, out of this world, extraordinary. Thank you for these great tunes. You and all of Linkin Park have left a mark in the field. Songs that will be of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Thanks for everything, sorry for so little

Whenever I listen to Linkin Park these days, I can't help but think of all the signs Chester had always been giving us that he was not okay, but nobody really ever did anything to truly help him. I know this song in particular was written by Mike, but nearly all of LP's songs are incredibly telling about Chester's state of mind since the beginning. It's awful that even today, people are still not able to get the help they need.

Chester's music helped me and many other people get through the same issues that led him to commit suicide, including me. I hope he knows how many lives he saved and how important he is to rock music in general ❤

Love you Chester so much❤

This was my introduction to a band that will last me a lifetime.

i just founf out what this spng is about an 36yrs old

Great song, amazing album. Unfortunately it was their last Great piece of work

Great song, brings back so many memories!

Breaking the habit…

I'm getting sick of waiting for a change to come, I will be my own change. Waiting for others to help you is a weakness. I won't be the fool I was anymore, nevermore. I will change. Wait for me, life.

Scary how the 2000's are suddenly the new nostalgia.
Time flies, hope yall enjoy life as much cuz its damn short.

Part of this song sounds like the living years by Mike and the mechanics haha

a great song

I feel the same 😢❤ miss you more then some people can imagine!

im back .... lol im 30 now. used to listen to this in my teens <3

Everybody needs this song right now in 2023 😂

Essa é braba, lembro da minha adolescência, indo pra escola ouvindo Linkin Park

turtles

I had this song down word for word all the way back when I was 8, stopped liking it for a bit, but enjoying it again

❤ this song! My brother told me " Plz don't do this again!😢. 7 years of recovery and I relapsed. Now 2 years. The shame, confusion, self-hate! Chester put it all out there! Vulnerability! Brave man! Rest in Power!

Cuse in side im ugly or the one that miss use

the older i get the more i realize these songs are just explaining life

Solo los verdaderos basados vienen por duper mario bros

This is a very good song for a anime opening imo😳

Break stuff
Breaking the law
Breaking the habit

2023❤

Memories consume, like opening the wound,
I'm picking me apart again.

One of my favorite songs growing up

Lyrics
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside, I realize
That I'm the one confused
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

bis heute - pure energie

❤

Crying, i'm fucking crying.

¿Quien mas viene por Duper Mario Bros?
Recuerdos :'3

A baritone part on the chorus would have been a nice touch. Not really his style, though, so I get it.

They dont make music like this anymore!

Amo.. esta canción.. 😉🇪🇨

2023 this song still hits as when it first came out. Beautiful song powerful message.

This song was ahead of its time

already 20 years after I first heard this song...
as I begin to better grasp my Autism and ADHD
I now have a better grasp on this song.
Thanks Linkin Park!

#1 alt rock song when I was born
