Crawling in my skin…

Crawling in my skin
Without a sense of confidence, confidence, confidence...
Consuming, confusing
Crawling my skin
Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take
There’s something inside me

That pulls beneath the surface

Crawling in my skin

(Crawling in my skin)
These wounds they will not heal
(These wounds they will not heal)
Fear is how I fall
(Fear is how I fall)
Confusing, confusing what is real
Confusing what is real...

There’s something inside me

That pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling, I can’t seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt his way before

So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can’t seem…

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt his way before

So insecure

Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced

That there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt his way before

So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real

    General Comment:Like most of the people on this page said, I can't choose between this song and the original Crawling. I love the way the cello and violins work their way into the songs. I also love how Aaron and Chester's voices mix together. I love both versions, but I'd have to say this one will be one most heard by me.

    General Comment:WOW...just by reading a few comments left me thinkin bull shit bout some of you guys...i dont even have to read them all to know this. Idc if anyone sends any comments about this cuz i wont be on here anyways lol. Hmm, Blink 182, punk, fuck that. They are far from it and if you truely think so, they are the pussyest punk i ever heard. Considering this, Linkin Park is more punk then they are(sometimes i cant stand how ppl change the meaning, from punk to PUSSY). Linkin Park is Kick ass!! Some say that they keep changin' their music, not really. Comparing every song, they never changed, and thats awesome...of course they could use a lil extra vocals like they used to "". BTW, TRL SUX now. and so does all of mtv.

    General Comment:I actually was able to obtain Reanimation before Hybrid Theory... and I will admit that I find Reanimation to be the better album. Don't get me wrong, HT is tight as hell and I love it, but Reanimation really got me into LP. To me, Reanimation is kind of an extended version of HT. Like this song is the perfect example. The cello and the violin are superb and I love it, but I will never forget the intro to the orginal "Crawling"...

    When I look at this version of "Crawling", I kind of a see an end of the world theme.... or maybe that's just me. Or something else really depressing. It makes me think of an anime called "Wolf's Rain"...

    General Comment:this song is awsome. It's amazing how their voices combine. The strange part is, when i played both their parts on the piano, it sounded really bad. Somehow, their voices blended into each other perfectly

    General Comment:It means alot to me hearing it now..... back 7 years ago, I was a very different person.... and after going thru a 6 year bad relationship I found myself a totally different and broken person. And even before i got with my ex I had been thru many years of trauma... so now fins myself not recognizing myself in the mirror anymore. This song totally says exactly how I feel inside
