Lyrics: -Linkin Park - Breaking the Habbit-
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
[bridge:]
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
[Chorus:]
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
[bridge:]
I dont want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
[Chorus:]
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
[bridge:]
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
[Chorus:]
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
I personally think this song is about his hardship "Breaking the Habbit" with drugs eg. cocaine. To me when he says "Im safe in my room" it means that he is safe from the outside world therefore he is safe from drugs because he is out of reach for them, unless he leaves the room. "I dont want to be one, the battles always choose" during the time of his rehab he has a choice wether to take the drugs or not and "Inside i realize, im the one confused" meaning he is unable to decide right from wrong and unable to make a decision on wether to take the drugs.
Egh, im short on time, this is all ive done sofar... hope u guys can add to it!
