In the End....Linkin Park

Life imitating art? or the other way around? I guess this happens to a lot of people....But like the song says, it doesn't even matter really, just to me.

(Chester)
It starts with one
(Mike)
One thing,
I don't know why,
It doesn't even matter how hard you try,
Keep that in mind,
I designed this rhyme,
To explain in due time,
(Chester)
All I know…
(Mike)

Time is a valuable thing,
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings,
Watch it count down 'till the end of the day,
The clock ticks life away,
It's so unreal…
You didn't look out below,
Watch the time go right out the window,
Tryin to hold on,
Didn't even know, I wasted it all just to
(Chester)
watch you go…
(Mike)
I kept everything inside,
And even though I tried,
It all fell apart,
What it meant to me
Will eventually be,
A memory of a time when
(Chester)
I tried so hard and got so far,
but in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
to lose it all,
but in the end,
It doesn't even matter,

One thing, I don't know why,
It doesn't even matter how hard you try,
Keep that in mind,
I designed this rhyme,
To remind myself how
I tried so hard...
In spite of the way you were mocking me,
Acting like I was part of your property,
Remembering all the times wherein you fought with me,
I'm surprised it
got so(far)…
Things aren't the way they were before,
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore,
Not that you knew me back then,
But it all comes back to me,
(Chester)
In the end...
(Mike)
You kept everything inside,
And even though I tried it all fell apart,
What it meant to me
Will eventually,
Be a memory of a time when
(Chester)
I tried so hard and got so far,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
to lose it all,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
(chestear)
I've put my trust in you,
Pushed as far as I can go,
For all this,
There's only one thing you should know,
I've put my trust in you,
Pushed as far as I can go,
For all this,
There's only one thing you should know,
(Reapeat this 2 times!)
(Chester)
I tried so hard and got so far,
but in the end,
it doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
to lose it all,
in the end,
it doesn't even matter.
