Linkin Park's, "Bleed It Out"
The Lyrics:
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I won't get loose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I won't get loose
Why:
With a song called "Bleed It Out" that talks about lynching, it's surprising that it's so dang catchy and makes me smile.

Linkin Park's, "Faint"
The Lyrics:
I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I can’t help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got
Handful of complaints but I can’t help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got
Why:
The actual beat and background music almost fill your entire body with energy, but the lyrics, once heard and interpreted have a depressing meaning.

Linkin Park's, "Valentine's Day"
The Lyrics:
I never knew what it was like
To be alone on a Valentines Day
To be alone on a Valentines Day
Why:
It is a bit depressing if you ask me... I mean, to most people, Valentine's Day is a day to be with a special person, but in this song the narrator is by himself.
