 Go Back  Song: In the end By: Linkin Park Writers: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda. Brad Neilson

It starts with media type="custom" key="3922725" One thing I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To explain in due time

All I know Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away

It's so unreal Didn't look out below Watch the time go right out the window Trying to hold on, but didn't even know Or wasted it all just to watch you go

I kept everything inside And even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be A memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far But in the end it doesn't even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end it doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme To remind myself how

I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me Acting like I was part of your property Remembering all the times you fought with me I'm surprised

It got so far Things aren't the way they were before You wouldn't even recognize me anymore Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me in the end

You kept everything inside And even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be A memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far But in the end it doesn't even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end it doesn't even matter

I've put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go And for all this There's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard and got so far But in the end it doesn't even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end it doesn't even matter__   Analysis:__ Linkin Park leaves their songs open for interpretation to whomever the reader may be. This song can be about the loss of love, and how the man tried so hard to save what he had. She took him for granted and used him. She ridiculed him and wouldn’t take him seriously. He says he has come a long way, but she really didn’t know him then anyway. He had conviction in the fact that she would work with him to make things better. He tried everything possible and worked his hardest—“pushed as far as I can go”—but in the end, nothing he did mattered.
