Not sure why I never noticed this song before. I guess I just played the songs I liked on my Linkin Park  cd and never bothered to listen to the other ones. Anyways, I was listening to my cd yesterday while doing dishes and this song came on. As I listened to the lyrics I thought to myself, 'WOW. Just....WOW.' Talk about a DoNM anthem if I've ever heard one! I especially like the part where he's screaming, "You, tried to take the best of me....GO AWAY!!!"
Take a listen for yourself here. And just in case you are unable to access links (or just don't feel like it!), here's the lyrics:
Place For My Head by Linkin Park
I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night
 Shining with the light from the sun
 But the sun doesn't give the light to the moon assuming, 
 The moon's gonna owe it one
 It makes me think of how you act to me
 You do favors then rapidly
 You just turn around and start asking me,
 About things that you want back from me
 I'm so sick of the tension
 Sick of the hunger
 Sick of you acting like I owe you this
 Find another place to feed your greed
 While I find a place to rest
 I wanna be in another place
 I hate when you say you don't understand
 (You'll see it's not meant to be)
 I wanna be in the energy
 Not with the enemy
 A place for my head
 Maybe some day I'll be just like you and
 Step on people like you do
 Run away all the people I thought I knew
 I remember back then who you were
 You used to be calm used to be strong
 Used to be generous but you should've known
 That you'd wear out your welcome
 now you see how quiet it is all alone 
 I'm so sick of the tension
 Sick of the hunger
 Sick of you acting like I owe you this
 Find another place to feed your greed
 While I find a place to rest
 I'm so sick of the tension
 Sick of the hunger
 Sick of you acting like I owe you this
 Find another place to feed your greed
 While I find a place to rest
 I wanna be in another place
 I hate when you say you don't understand
 (You'll see it's not meant to be)
 I wanna be in the energy
 Not with the enemy
 A place for my head
 You try to take the best of me, go away
 You try to take the best of me, go away
 You try to take the best of me, go away
 You try to take the best of me, GO AWAY
 YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME
 GO AWAY, YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME
 GO AWAY, YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME
 GO AWAY, YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME
 GO AWAY!!!!!!
 I wanna be in another place
 I hate when you say you don't understand
 (You'll see it's not meant to be)
 I wanna be in the energy
 Not with the enemy
 A place for my head
 I'm so sick of the tension
 Sick of the hunger
 Sick of you acting like I owe you this
 Find another place to feed your greed
 While I find a place to rest
 I'm so sick of the tension
 Sick of the hunger
 Sick of you acting like I owe you this
 Find another place to feed your greed
 While I find a place to rest

Wow, those are powerful lyrics. I related strongly to Linkin Park's Numb - this group - or at least their song writer - knows a thing or two about N-relationships.
ReplyDelete@ OAD - I've often thought the same thing! My guess is one of his P's was N since I don't think one could understand as well as he seems to if he were a "normie".
