Give it all away
Linkin Park Lyrics

Nothing ever stops all these thoughts and the pain attached to them
I am constantly plagued by my thoughts and the pain that comes with them, and it seems like there is no relief.

Sometimes I wonder why this is happening
I am questioning why I am going through this and what caused it to happen.

It's like nothing I can do would distract me when
I feel as though nothing can take my mind off of the pain and thoughts.

I think of how I shot myself in the back again
I often regret my actions and feel like I have betrayed myself.

Cuz from the infinite words I can say I
Despite my inner turmoil, I can still find the words to express myself.

Put all pain you gave to me on display
I showcase the emotional pain that you have inflicted upon me.

But didn't realize instead of setting it free I
However, I failed to recognize that I was actually internalizing this pain instead of releasing it.

Took what I hated and made it a part of me
I allowed this pain and negativity to become a part of me, which only made things worse.

(Never goes away)
These thoughts and emotions never completely go away and continue to haunt me.

(Never goes away)
This statement is repeated to emphasize that this feeling is persistent and unrelenting.

(And now)
Now, the situation has escalated and things have become more complicated.

(You've become a part of me)

(I can't separate)
I am unable to distance myself from this person and their influence on me.

(Myself from what I've done)
I am unable to separate my actions from my own identity.

(Giving up a part of me)
By internalizing the pain and negativity inflicted on me, I am giving up a part of myself.

(I've let myself become you)
I have become like this person who inflicted pain on me, and I regret it.

Hearing your name the memories come back again
Just hearing this person's name brings back painful memories of the past.

I remember when it started happening
I recall when this pain and negativity first began to take root in my life.

I see you in every thought I had and then
This person's influence is all-encompassing and affects my every thought.

The thoughts slowly found words attached to them
Gradually, these thoughts and feelings started to take shape and solidify into words.

And I knew as they escaped away
As these thoughts started to surface, I became aware of the impact they were having on me.

I was committing myself to them and everyday
Every day, I felt more and more invested in these negative thoughts and feelings.

I regret saying those things cuz now I see that I
Looking back, I regret expressing these negative thoughts and feelings because I now realize the impact they had on me.
