Numb

I’m tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don’t know what you’re expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus]
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I’m becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can’t you see that you’re smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

[Chorus]
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I’m becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

[Chorus]
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I’m becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

[Chorus]
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
I’m tired of being what you want me to be
I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there
I’m tired of being what you want me to be

What I've Done

In this farewell
There’s no blood
There’s no alibi
’Cause I’ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies

So let mercy come
And wash away…

What I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done

Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty

So let mercy come
And wash away…

What I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done

For what I’ve done

I’ll start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m forgiving what I’ve done

I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done
What I’ve done

Forgiving what I’ve done

Leave Out All The Rest

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I’m done here

So if you’re asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

And don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Don’t be afraid
I’ve taken my beating
I’ve shared what I made

I’m strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I’ve never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you’re asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You’ve learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can’t be who you are

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You’ve learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can’t be who you are
I can’t be who you are

New Divide

I remembered black skies / the lightning all around me
I remembered each flash / as time began to blur
Like a startling sign / that fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve

So give me reason / to prove me wrong / to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason / to fill this hole / connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide

There was nothing in sight / but memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide / the ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in / between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve

So give me reason / to prove me wrong / to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Across this new divide

In every loss / in every lie
In every truth that you’d deny
And each regret / and each goodbye
was a mistake to great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve

So give me reason / to prove me wrong / to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason / to fill this hole / connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide

The Catalyst - LP

God bless us everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can’t be outfought
It can’t be outdone
It can’t out matched
It can’t be outrun
No

God bless us everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can’t be outfought
It can’t be outdone
It can’t out matched
It can’t be outrun
No

And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
(God bless us everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
Oh)
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky

God save us everyone,
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
For the sins of our hand
The sins of our tongue
The sins of our father
The sins of our young
No

God save us everyone,
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
For the sins of our hand
The sins of our tongue
The sins of our father
The sins of our young
No

And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
(God save us everyone,
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
Oh)
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky

Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky

Lift me up
Let me go (x10)

Chester was born in Phoenix, Arizona, but moved to different cities in the state of Arizona. American Parents, and also he has three brothers. Went to Centennial High School and Greenway High School, and graduated in the Washington High School. During high school, Chester also worked as an actor, he believed that he was going to become a actor when he grow up. He started to practice his voice when he was 13. His first instrument was a piano. His biggest influence was his older brother, Brian, that used to listen ot Loveboy, Foreigner, Rush and Led Zeppelin. When Chester was young, he sang around the house, pretending to be the fifth member of Depeche Mode. Chester was a victim of child abuse when he was a kid, trying to run away from the reality, he started using drugs, but he went over it when he was 20 years old, for Chester, it was the most emotional moment of his life. When Chester married Samantha, he didn't have money to pay for the rings, his friend Sean had a tattoo store, and he tattooed for free a rings tattoo on Chester.

Without money to pay for college, Chester sneaked into the Philosophy classes, when the teachers found out, they kept letting him attend the classes because of his potential. Chester's first musical job was with the band Grey Daze, where he was the vocalist, the band recorded two records: Wake me and No Sun Today. A year after he left Grey Daze, on his 23rd Birthday he got a phone call from the executive producer from Zomba Music, Jeff Blue, inviting him to join Xero, on the next day they sent him a package with the demo with one instrumental song and some other tracks with the voice from the former singer, so Chester could be familiar with it and record his vocals. In three days Chester wrote the lyrics and melodies for a new song and he also sang old songs. They first heard the results by phone, and then they invited him to join Zomba Music in California. He was the last member to join the band Xero, which in the future would be called Hybrid Theory.

Soon as he got in Los Angeles, Chester didn't have anywhere to stay, he stayed months sleeping in couches at his friend's house. During the recording of the first CD, he slept in his car, parked in front of the studio. When the first employees started to arrive in the morning, Chester ran inside and kept sleeping on the recording room waiting the rest of the band to arrive.

In 1995, Chester and Sean Dowdell (founder of Grey Daze) created the Club Tattoo, which is a tattoo store in Phoenix, Arizona. Today the store is located in three locations in Arizona.

Chester was so poor, he didn't even had a bike to more around, he had a skate board and a box containing his personal objects.

Chester suffered from Laryngitis and bronchitis, but he got better in April 2004 when he got an Surgery. in 2005 Chester separated from his ex wife Samantha where he had a child called Draven Sebastian, in the same year he married his actual wife Talinda when he found out she was pregnant. With her, he had a child called Tyler Lee. Besides Draven and Tyler, Chester also has a 10 years old son called Jaime, which was adopted. In a recent interview, Chester said that he adopted Jaime's brother: "I have three sons, i adopted my older son, and his brother. I adopted him as my own son, so i think i have four kids".

Chester has 15 tattoos, he says that each tattoo has a meaning, in his arms he has the flames, which is his favorite tattoo, the inspiration of the flames coincide with the one in his shoulders (based on fishes and ocean creatures) it also represents his sign, Pisces, Chester was born in March 20. Chester's tattoos symbolize his two personalities: water and fire. There are 6 arms tattooed on his back, it was made by his friend who said that it was the visual representation of how Chester reaches out and grab the audience. on the bottom of his back has the name of the band tattooed in goth letters, he bet with Jeff if Linkin Park was Platinum, he was going to make that tattoo on his back. The tattoo was never finished. On his back also has two Chinese dragons, on his left leg has the soldier from Hybrid Theory (you can see him making the tattoo on the DVD Frat Party at the Pankake Festival. Chester was born on the year of the Dragon, that's the reason for the dragon tattooed on his right leg, he says that it is the same Samantha has on her butt. On his finger from the right hand he has a gold ring with a big rock on the top, he for it for birthday. On his finger on the left hand he has his wedding ring. On his left elbow has a skull with swords, on his chest has the initials TB and CB (Chester Bennington and Talinda Bennington with roses under) also he has another tattoo on his right elbow not identified. Before his success, he didn't like to go to the beach because people didn't like the tattoos, he didn't know what would happen, he needed to keep his job because he didn't have enough money. Now that he has money he does whatever he wants.

Chester says he understand that many fans need to go to shows so they can externalize the chaos they live on, he feels stronger when he sees all the fans jumping and having fun. Chester is the only band member that needs a kit of suit cases for his clothes and shoes, he has a different pair of shoes for each different pair of clothes, his underwear has to combine with his clothes, his socks has to combine with the shoes, etc... his outfit is really important for him, for him, everything has to be really organized.

Curiosities:-His most embarrassed moment was when he threw up on the fans from the front line in a concert

.-The most strange thing that a fan ever asked him was his clothes.-

The craziest thing he ever did was join the band.-His voice is different because it has two different sounds.

-Chester and Joe says that the lyrics from the song Everlong of Foo Fighters is the best on History.
