The last song

[Acodemaster]

If linkin park wrote their last record, what do you think the final track would be. Note that you should pick one of the tracks they already wrote, as if they never wrote it. Don't make up a song or something.

For me, it would probably be SOTD

[ChuckCheese]

Shadow Of The Day or In The End.

[Acodemaster]

Shadow Of The Day or In The End.

In the end... Wow that makes sense...

 

Imagine if it was something like Hit the floor or something

[Joe_lp]

It'd be One Step Closer, knowing they're OSC to the end, so they're about to break and they need a little room to breathe

[Monsterman]

I think that it will be In The End!!

[Papelbon]

LOATR

 

So they go out on top not trying to go out past their prime.

[Braininator]

This question could be answered in so many contexts, but...

 

I think the band would be happy with The Little Things Give You Away as the final track on such an album.

[sckofelng]

Maybe also Faint {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif

[dark_master]

In The End, because of the name... or Breaking The Habit, they love this song {SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif

[danielpsoad-09]

Breaking the Habit

[harakiri]

i'd say osc cause in my head it's still their typical ending song, eventhough that's history now. but that song has this special place in lp's history for me since it was their first released song and also the one that got me into the band, so it should also be the last we hear from them.

[Geki]

The Little Things Give You Away for sure. Either that or Breaking The Habit.

[Sixpounder]

lol...i think i would choose Sotd...don't know why...

[linkinmetalfanatic]

i would say given up, listen to the lyrics, or in the end clearly lol.

[LPPRJKT4]

Hmm if they broke up because they had to then In The End. If it was their own choice then prob LOATR.

[hahninator]

Breaking The Habit

[linkinmetalfanatic]

possibly LOATR or NRL too

[Annoy]

Definitely it would be part of me

 

Lyrics:

 

Part of me won’t go away

Everyday reminded how much I hate it

Weighted against the consequences

Can’t live without it so it’s senseless

Wanna cut it out of my soul

And just live with a gaping hole

Take control of my life

And wash out all the burnt taste

I made the problems in the first place

Hang my head low ‘cause it’s part of me

Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me

Heard of me the routine scar

New cuts cover where the old ones are

And now I’m sick of this

I can’t stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade away on my sanity

I rather not even be then the man that’s staring in the mirror through me

 

Pre chorus

Cut myself free willingly

Stop just what’s killing me (4x)

 

I feel it everyday

I feel I made my way

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside

Swallowing me

 

It can’t be frightening if you’ve never felt it

Once it’s been dealt with you feel like you’ve been touched by something angelic

And then melted down into a pool of peace

Cease to be the animal you used to be

Remove the broken parts you know were wrong

And feel the karma when the problem’s all gone

And then you start to see another piece of yourself that you can’t let be

And that reason’ll last fight to free yourself

Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well

And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart

Where your insides bruise

You can live if you’re willing to

Put a stop to just what’s killing you

 

Pre chorus (4x)

 

Chorus

 

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me

[Papelbon]

^^^

Good point

[linkinmetalfanatic]

^^^nice notice i like it never even thought of it man well done

[Conjure]

Breaking The Habit.

[WizzyKid]

I think foreward would be the best way to end it...

 

Joking aside, I'd pick either In The End for the reasons mentioned or Leave Out All The Rest because lyrically it fits well and it just sends off the band really well.

[LPMaskMan]

The classic: One Step Closer \m/ \m/

[LPPRJKT4]

Traditionally the band shud close off with OSC with the reanimation bridge, but of course if they continued using other closers as on the M2M tour, then I'd say In The End or LOATR too.
