Lyrics for Crawling as interpreted by Matt

Crawling Lyrics
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
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, I’m convinced
there's just too much pressure to take
I’ve felt this 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, I’m convinced
there's just too much pressure to take
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real (x2)

i think people who listen to linkin park dont understand the views of the older as theyre not into old metal, and dont realise that theres more to vocals than "perfect pitch" if you can call it that, this music, this scene, it lacks a certain attitude, this day, thats where the problem is, oh btw arent mini moshas cute, awwww, hehe - adam

That's been said. Amyme, i'm not retarded actually (strikes tarty pose) i'm quite clever (if i say so myself) and i have the natural ability to see through gay bands. Your quite right who ever said it, it IS aboot opinions. i've put in my point. i didn't ignore yours, don't ignore mine. Linkin Park (if they DO right there own songs, natch) right GOOD songs but they attract the wrong type of people and image. They were good before they got popular, they did to well, but one day, they'll just run out of money.

Anyone who said they suck should take a long good look at themselves and then go F*CK YOURSELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!THEY RULE!!!!!!!!!!!THEY ARE THE GREATEST MOST INTELLEGENT AND BY FAR THE GREATEST BAND OUT THERE! Here is a list (if you don't already know who you are) :
GolGotha (who can't even use homophones properly and gives witches and gothics a bad name)
Ramones (who isn't even in his own right mind either)
hydrogen (F*CK OFF YOU D*MN B*STARD, you aren't even close to being a fan)
elderlymechanic (loser)
edgaurd (i have the same instructions for you as the hydrogen F*CK and golgotha)
RyderFromHell (you're a F*CKING B*STARD

to mean this song is about not liking what youve turned into and not knowing how you went from the way you used to be...to how you are now..."Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It’s haunting how I can’t seem
To find myself again" hes crawling in his skin because he cant stand what he has turned into....like the girl in the video staring in the mirror....she hates what she sees staring back at her....by the end of the video shes changed it....and how people can say this song has no depth is ignorant and we are all now dumber for listening to their pathetic attempts at making themselves look like a better person. and no they were not put together like a boy band....god why dont people learn what they are talking about b4 they go and stick their foot in their mouth!

i with what glitstar said, I have anxiety disorder, and I have panic(well they arent panic attacks but close) almost everyday, and I love this song, cause there is so much pressure my body cant handle it, and I take pills and they dont help, and it like consumes me, and i cant seem to take control and it feels like my whole life crashes down.

Linkin Park are very smart and you guys need to understand that when bands join the music industry in a way like those members of Linkin Park did they aren't going to want to look like cheapshots who want to make easy money. No they weren't taking the easy way out in this song, their filmclip had too much effort and thought put into it and the subliminal and ironic gestures in this song are toooooo well thought up for someone trying to "make easy money" as some people would have us believe. And another point, not many boy bands i know about talk about suicide, depression and schizophrenia in their songs. It's all about girls and relationships that are sweet and "good" with boy bands. If Linkin Park were trying to be like a boy band at all they wouldn't be so god damn heavy in their issues. I agree with what someone said a while back about their songs being general, but as with most people and groups of people their are a multitude of experiences in people's lives and alot of them are bad. I have felt like committing suicide many times during my early high school life and Linkin Park's songs have helped me to look above and push on out of my hellhole. Go Linkin Park all the way. By the way this song is obviously about schizophrenia, depression and constant abuse, not drug addiction. Sorry to burst people's bubble but this song doesn't really refer to drugs much and none of them really do. Anyway i just want to say that as the newest member of the SONGMEANINGS.net community that it is an amazing pleasure to be among people of such articulate minds. I appreciate all input and criticism on my comments as long as it is constructive, for that is the only way we will continue to push ahead in this world. Here's a brief bios on myself if anyone wants to know.
Name: Sanjay Ramzan
Gender: Male( of course)
Location: Newcastle Australia
Age: 14
Fave Bands and singers: Linkin Park of course! Dr Dre, Motor Ace (Aussie Band), Eminem, Dr Dre, tonnes of others but i have to stop now.
To all those people who question the depth of Linkin Park's songs, get a life. People go through these things every day, sure their songs are general but lots of people have lots of problems. And to those asswipes who say LP's songs aren't deep, if LP's songs aren't deep what is idiots??
I leave the question and the gauntlet to be taken up by you people. Hit me back anytime
Luv 4 all
Sanjay
