Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's on their faces
The heartache and the pain
Their tears fall like the
Pouring rain from the clouds
They share a bond
An aching from deep inside
It's in their voices
That scream out in the night
There's no stopping
The darkness coming
It keeps on growing
Feels so cold
Their bodies shaking
Their hearts are quaking
There'll be no saving
The forgotten souls
They yell for justice
But no one hears their cry
There's no one left to help
In sight
Their sorrow binds them
And it never goes away
They scream their hearts out
And this is what they say
There's no stopping
The darkness coming
It keeps on growing
Feels so cold
Their bodies shaking
Their hearts are quaking
There'll be no saving
The forgotten souls
oooooo......
forgotten souls
They share a bond
An aching from deep inside
It's in their voices
That scream out in the night
There's no stopping
The darkness coming
It keeps on growing
Feels so cold
Their bodies shaking
Their hearts are quaking
There'll be no saving
The forgotten souls
There's no stopping
The darkness coming
It keeps on growing
Feels so cold
Their bodies shaking
Their hearts are quaking




There'll be no saving
The forgotten souls

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Forgotten" by Linkin Park convey the heartbreaking situation of those who have been forsaken and abandoned by society. The first verse depicts the agony of those who cry and their tears falling like pouring rain from the clouds. The song talks about the bond that these forgotten souls share, and the pain runs so deep that it's expressed in their voices that scream out in the night. The second verse is a description of the hopelessness that they feel. They are yelling for justice, but no one seems to be listening to their cries for help. Their sorrow is pervasive and doesn't seem to ever go away.


The chorus speaks about how the darkness keeps on growing, and the forgotten souls are trembling with fear. Their hearts are quivering, and there is no salvation for them. The darkness is a metaphor for the hopelessness that they feel, and the coldness of their bodies represents the emotional void. The last line of the song is a final surrender to a fate that cannot be changed, stating that there will be no saving of the lost souls.
