Lyrics for In The End as interpreted by Matt

In The End Lyrics
It starts with one
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
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
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...

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 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
In the end
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 I tried

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

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
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

It starts with
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
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
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...

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 you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before

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

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

It doesn't even matter
I had to fall

It doesn't even matter

Is that All you got? I thought that you would have a lot more to say. You disappoint me. :)
Do you hate us that much? You know there are places you can go for all that anger of yours!
Oh and NtoTheDrk you don't speak for everyone.

Binkie, that is all I have, I beleive I conveyed my message to the fullest and you trying to egg me on to write more and become angry is a poor attempt at best. NtoTheDark may not speak for everyone, but certainly speaks for myself. Please Binkie, I am interested in seeing you respons, you are a horrible person and jsut to remind you that having a 'cute' name on the message board doesn't make you cute in real life. I hate you still

Why don't you both shutup? You're both doing what you're telling each other not to do.

This song just reminds me not to sweat the small stuff, so to speak, because in the end it really doesn't matter
P.S. All of you people should remember that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It's all about respect kids

Toolapc, Call me dumb, stupid, retarded, slow, etc., but how can someone be intimidating online? It is not possible. Intimidation usually requires spoken words or some sort of visual aid. Example: Seeing the person you are talking to. Your comments make me sad, they really do. Online hate always gets me in the heart. I'm gonna go cry myself to sleep now. Feel free to come over to scratch my back and kiss my neck until I fall asleep. It will be just like old times when we were a serious couple. Fall back in love with me please. I'll always love you.

ok.... this is my first negative post.. but i don't know how anyone could see anything decent in linkin parks lyrics.. they are an uninspired fabrication along the lines of insync (truth of the matter is they were created simply to get records sold to the young depressed hate boy band crowd.) so the music industry delivered us this nice neo-metal wanna be band, and they assault me with uninspired lyrics (i tried so hard and got so far but in the end it doesn't relly matter?) wtf is that supposed to mean... its all falsely suicidal adolescent crap.... to further prove my point on just how uninspired LP is... they are realeasing a "new" album this summer.. with... yes you guessed it.. NOTHING BUT HYBRID THEORY REMIXES!!! how is that creative? they can't come up with new material.. but probably snorted their fortune... and sence they need to sell 7 million more albums to afford all the nice drugs that you can get with stardom..... they re-release the same album with guest artists, give me a break... the song means nothing.. absolutely nothing, you can't read into what isn't there! like i said, its a bunch of young "outcasts" (right) with fresh tattoos trying to sound depressed to be cool... its as simple as that

I love Linkin Park, and their whold CD kicks ass. I liked this song long before it ever came out, now they are wearing it out on the radio, but it still will be a song to help me get through shit.

I love Linkin Park (and this song), because lp don't sing about things like they're so good and can't be beaten. I think everyone should have their own opinion at this board. You see, this board is not only for the people who like Linkin Park.

This is a really cool song. It's got such meaning to it. I love it. ;) It's about a guy that really trusted in this one girl but she was a bitch and never really loved him very much anyway so she just treated him badly even though he did nice things for her. Now he's pissed off.

charhino- "It's about a guy that really trusted in this one girl but she was a bitch and never really loved him very much anyway so she just treated him badly even though he did nice things for her. Now he's pissed off. "

Don't u mean it's about a guy pretending to be pissed off?

Any one can relate to this song. It shows how anything can and will go wrong no matter how hard you work at it. And it can go both ways.

Now, I'm not the biggest Linkin Park fan...I used to think they sucked and were just stupid nu-metal hateful stuff, but they're growing onto me. My interpretation of this song is about this guy just watching this girl fall and destroy herself. He tries to help her and was getting far into the way, but then she totally fell, and he's just pissed that he couldn't save her at all.

To me this song is about trying so hard to get the person you realize that you love them, and working, and doing everything just for them, when they dont really give a shit and could careless. And all your love and work, in the end doesnt matter.
