Here Are Some Hidden Meanings Behind Lyrics.
Thanx To All Who Have Given Me Their Ideas...
I'm Adding Them In Here, Plus Added Some Of My Own...
Meteora:
1. Foreward (Intro):
2. Don't Stay:
Don't Stay is about someone who is trying to change another person so that they are just like them. They are being told to leave and just forget everything that they ever went through "Forget our Memories, Forget Our Possibilities...What You Were Changing Me Into"...You are tired of being treated that way, you need some space so you're telling them to leave so you can get your life back...
3. Somewhere I Belong:
This song is all about being alone, feeling like you have to overcome it alone, then finding out that you're not the only one who feels that way. You want to break away and stop feeling the way you do. Then you realize that the only thing you need is to reach inside of you to find the strength to do anything about the way you feel...
4. Lying From You:
This song is all about someone who is really clingy and won't let the other person do their own thing. They also can't stand the fact that they are being pushed away so much but they just won't let go. "I wanna be pushed aside so let me go". You can't stand them and you just want them to go away. You pretend up some person your bf/gf will like to fit in, but you realize that it doesn't work so the best thing for you to do is just to leave it behind and start over. Once you start, there's no turning back!...
5. Hit The Floor:
This song is about liking someone so much that you don't see everything they are putting you through. you are blind and keep putting up with all their sh*t. You don't tell him in fear of them leaving. Going through everyday listening to lies and not knowing when they will stop walking all over you. In The End they will get what's coming to them "What Goes Up Will Surely Fall"...
6. Easier To Run:
This song is all about feeling left out and different so you just want to run away from everything instead for facing everything and everyone. If you could change you would, but sometimes you get so far into it you can't do anything but runaway. You are at a standpoint and you start to think that instead of changing its just easier to run hope things will get better...
*Special Note* I Was Just Informed That Easier To Run is about how chester was sexually abused and how he got over it and when he was rebeling and doing drugs and all of that.
7. Faint:
This song is about being in a bad relationship and telling them not to turn their back on you cause you won't be ignored by them. Your bf/gf keeps turning their back on you and won't give you the time of day...You are telling them, They WILL listen to you wither they like it or not!! You won't go back to feeling the way you did before, so you are moving on and telling that person not to leave cause they're all you have...
8. Figure.09:
This song is about being in a relationship and realizing that instead of setting the pain and anger free, you let it become a part of you. You can't stop thinking about this person, hoping they will go away and let you live in peace. No matter how hard you try to forget them, they are a part of you and the thoughts of them won't go away "I've Let You Go, So Get Away From Me". Down the line you get lost in the thoughts of the other person and realize that you are following in their footsteps...
9. Breaking The Habit:
this song is about being alone sitting in your room going crazy. you start picking fights with everyone cause you are so confused not knowing what brings on these feelings. You know its not ok to feel/act like that so you are convinced that you will break the habit and find yourself. You know its your fault but you blame everyone else...
10. From The Inside:
This song is saying that you hit rock bottom cause you put so much trust into a person and you are trying to get away from those feelings and what causes them. You are taking everything you have from the inside and putting it aside cause you will not trust not waste yourself on the person who started the feelings...
11. Nobody's Listening:
This song is all about you being ready to explode and wanting to go crazy but you realize that nobody's listening. You hate everyone else and you can't keep yourself together. You are putting the feelings to use by writing, but its not helping cause nobodys is reading what you are writing. You tried to tell people by giving them warnings but they were just ignored "Nothing To Gain, Everything To Fear"...
12. Session:
Just A Session Dedicated To Mr. Hahn's Skills...It's Pretty cool!!
13. Numb:
This song is all about trying to be what your bf/gf wants you to be but instead of becoming someone your not, you become numb and can't handle it anymore. This person wants you to be so perfect and expects so much of you. You don't want to fall to that level and lose control. Instead of taking charge of the situation you become numb and can't think straight...
Hybrid Theory:

This Song Basically Talks About Someone Being Paranoid And Worries About Everything. Someone Who Has A Face Watching Their Every Move Eventhough They can't See It. "It's Like I'm Paranoid Looking Over My Back". And Every Little Thing Makes You Jump Or Makes You Fear Whats Not There. "A Face That Awakes When I CLose My Eyes. A Face That Watches Everytime I Lie. A Face That Laughs Everytime I Fall."

To Make The Relationship Work But He Keeps Getting
Pushed Closer And Closer To The Edge, And Sooner Or

This Song Describes A Relationship And Continues Even After They Have Broken Up. "Evn If Your Not With Me I'm With You". "Eventhough Your So Close To Me, Your Still So Distant And I Can't Bring YOu Back." And At The End Of The Song He Says "No Matter How Far We've Come, I Can't Wait To See Tomorrow...With You". He Still Loves Her But Wishes They Wern't Fighting So Much. And He Wants To Make It Work.
4.Points Of Authority-
This Song describes How Someone Wants Their Bf/Gf To Feel The Pain They Went Through And Wants Them To Suffer The Way That They Did. "You Like To Think Your Never Wrong. You Want To Act Like Your Someone. You Want Someone To Hurt Like You. You Want To Share What You've Been Through." And She Has Made is Life Hell To Make herself happy.
5. Crawling-
This Song Clearly Describes A Persons Feelings After Being Emotionally And Physically Abused. "Crawling In My Skin. Consuming All I feel. Fear is how I Fall. Confusing What Is Real." She Just Feels So Dirty Like Everyone Is Looking At Her. But She Is To Scared To Leave. She Feels Trapped And Alone." Against My Will I Stand Beside My Own Reflection."
6. Runaway-
This Song Is All About Runing Away From Your Problems And Just Need To Get Away And Start Over Hoping It Will All Be Better The Second Time Around. "I Wanna Run away, Never Say Good-bye. I Wanna Know The Truth, Instead Of Wondering Why. I Wann Know The Answers, No More Lies. I Wanna Shut The Door, To Open My Mind."
7. By Myself-
This Song Tells How A Person Just Goes Along With The Relationship never Speaking His Mind." If I Turn My Back I'm Defenseless. And To Go Blindly Seems Senseless". He Listens To Everything She Says Afraid To Speak His Mind. "When All I Know Is What You Tell Me To". He Relys On Everything But Himself. He Can't Hold On "With Thoughts Of Failure Sinking In".
8. In The End-
This Song Is All About Trying, Failing, And Starting Over. No Matter What You Do It Never Seems To Be Enough To Make Someone Happy. And You Feel Useless But You Soon Realize That It's Just That Person Making You Feel That Way." In Spite Of The Way You Were Mocking Me, Acting Like I Was Part Of Your Property". At The End Of The Song He Realizes Everything He Should Have known. Things Arn't The Way They Were Before. You Wouldn't even Recognize Me Anymore. not That You Knew Back Then. But It All comes Back To Me In The End".
9. A Place For My Head-
This Song Is All About Someone Taking Advantage Of You. You need To Find "A Place For Your Head" And Get Away Before You Go Crazy."I Want To Be In Another Place, I hate When You say You Don't understand. I Want To Be With The Energy not With The Enemy, A Place For My Head. And He Realizes It And Takes Action. "You Tried To Take The Best Of Me....Go Away!!".
10. Forgotten-
This Song Is ALl About Depression. If You Listen To The Chorus Really Closly It Explains What I Mean. "In The Memory You Will Find Me, Eyes Burning Up. The Darkness Holding Me Tightly, Until The Sun Rises Up". When You Are Upset, You Cry So Much Your Eyes Burn. The Darkness Holds You Tightly And Won't Let You Stop Thinking About It. You Feel So Alone Until Someone Comes Along And Puts The Sun Back In Your Sky.

Or You Go With The Flow Just To Make Friends Knowing They Are Only Your "Friends" Cause They Think You Are Someone Else Other Than Yourself. "This Is The Last Smile I'll Fake For The Sake Of Being With You".
Hybrid Theory Ep:
1. High Voltage-
I'm not Sure About This One. I Think It's Just Talking About Someones Life. Cause In The beginging Mike Says "Just A Little Something To Tell You Who I Am...Ya Know. So I'm thinking It's About His Life Before Linkin Park. I Culd be Wrong Though. I'll keep You Posted.
2. Step Up-
This Song Is Really Self Explanitory. It's Saying That You're Not An Mcee If Everyone Else Is Writing Your Music And You Preform Infront Of An Audience. You Have To Study The Skill. "You’re New To Hip Hop And Welcome If Your Serious....But Not On The Mic....Leave That To The Experienced"
3. Part Of Me-
4. Technique-
5. And One-
I Think This Song Is About A Person (Male Or Female) Who Is Scared Of Someone In Their Relationship or parents. They Feel A Certain Way Because Of The Way They're Treated Or Lied To. Then, They Get Away From This Person, Though They Loved Him/Her, They Know There Is No Love To Be Returned And Runs Away And Then Attempts To Forget The Person And Stays Away Forever. And The Whole Rap Part That Mike Sings Is Saying " Taking You Out Of My Blood To Bring Me Peace".
6. Carousel-
This Song Describes The Lifes Of Two People Who Have Something In Common. They Both Keep Running From Their Problems And Keep Making Excuses Or Reasons Why They Don't Need Anyones Help and The More You Try To Help Them, The More They Need Your Help.
Extra Songs:
1.
My December-
This Song Is Telling About Someone Who Is Alone Because They Lost Someone They Loved Due To Whatever Reason. A Person Who Left On Bad Terms And Now Can't Get Anything Back. They Wish They Could Turn Back Time And Give Up Everything They Have Just To Have Someone To Care For Them And Somewhere That Is warm And Full Of All The Things They Want/need. It's A Song You Would Sing/Listen To While Watching The Snow Fall Outside. It Doesn't Have To Be Winter And I Can Relate To It.....
