Formed in 1996, Linkin Park rose to international fame with their debut studio album, Hybrid Theory (2000), which became certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Released during the peak of the nu metal scene, the album's singles' heavy airplay on MTV led the singles "One Step Closer", "Crawling" and "In the End" all to chart highly on the US Mainstream Rock chart. The lattermost also crossed over to the nation's Billboard Hot 100. Their second album, Meteora (2003), continued the band's success. The band explored experimental sounds on their third album, Minutes to Midnight (2007). By the end of the decade, Linkin Park was among the most successful and popular rock acts.
The band continued to explore a wider variation of musical types on their fourth album, A Thousand Suns (2010), layering their music with more electronic sounds. The band's fifth album, Living Things (2012), combined musical elements from all of their previous records. Their sixth album, The Hunting Party (2014), returned to a heavier rock sound, and their seventh album, One More Light (2017), was a substantially more pop-oriented record. Linkin Park went on a hiatus when longtime lead vocalist Bennington died in July 2017. In April 2022, Shinoda revealed the band was neither working on new music nor planning on touring for the foreseeable future.
Linkin Park is among the best-selling bands of the 21st century and the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 100 million records worldwide. They have won two Grammy Awards, six American Music Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, 10 MTV Europe Music Awards and three World Music Awards. In 2003, MTV2 named Linkin Park the sixth-greatest band of the music video era and the third-best of the new millennium. Billboard ranked Linkin Park No. 19 on the Best Artists of the Decade list. In 2012, the band was voted as the greatest artist of the 2000s in a Bracket Madness poll on VH1. In 2014, the band was declared as "The Biggest Rock Band in the World Right Now" by Kerrang!.

Linkin Park Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything I've said before
All these words, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
You'll find that out anyway
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again (over and over again, over and over again, over and over again, over and over again)
Just like before
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to break
These are the places where I can feel
Torn from my body, my flesh, it peels
During this ride, we can cut up what we like (I'm about to break)
Waiting alone, I cannot resist
Feeling this hate, I have never missed
Please, someone, give me a reason to rip off my face
Blood is a pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring
And pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring
Shut up when I'm talking to you, shut up
Blood is pouring (shut up)
Blood is pouring (shut up)
Blood is pouring, shut up when I'm talking to you (shut up)
Blood is pouring (shut up)
Blood is pouring (shut up)
Blood is pouring (shut up)
I'm about to break
Everything you say to me (and I'm about to break)
I need a little room to breathe (and I'm about to break)
Everything you say to me (and I'm about to break)
I need a little room to breathe (and I'm about to break)
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to
The lyrics to Linkin Park's song "1stp Klosr" are full of frustration, anger, and a desperate need for some breathing room. The singer is at their breaking point, unable to tolerate the meaningless and senseless words that keep coming their way. They find comfort in their ignorance but are constantly bombarded with thoughts that make no sense.
The refrain "Everything you say to me, and I'm about to break, I need a little room to breathe" is repeated throughout the song, conveying how overwhelming it can be to constantly hear others' opinions and criticisms. The singer's desire for space is so strong that they wish they could disappear altogether.
The final section of the song takes a more violent turn. The singer is consumed by hate and begs for a reason to "rip off [their] face." The repeated line "blood is pouring" conveys the intensity of their emotions, leading up to the climactic declaration that they are "about to break."
Overall, the lyrics to "1stp Klosr" speak to the pressure of constantly being judged, criticized, and overwhelmed. The singer's desire for some breathing room is relatable to anyone who has felt suffocated by the demands of others.

Torn from my body, my flesh, it peels
My emotions are overwhelming and feel painful
During this ride, we can cut up what we like (I'm about to break)
During this journey, we can do as we please, but I'm at my breaking point
Waiting alone, I cannot resist
When I'm alone, I can't hold back my emotions
Feeling this hate, I have never missed
I am feeling such strong hatred that I have never felt before
Please, someone, give me a reason to rip off my face
I feel so overwhelmed that I want to get rid of everything that makes me who I am
Blood is a pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring and pouring
My emotions are overflowing and overwhelming me
Shut up when I'm talking to you, shut up

Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
Everything you say or do is pushing me closer and closer to my breaking point
'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I am so close to my breaking point

I like it when he said shut up
Heyim18bro
you gotta listen to KrwIng after and then loop the album as the string sounds / echoes tie it all together.

@Heyim18bro yes my fav song ever

Reanimation is like class on how to remix songs. Every single remix in the album take the original songs to unexpected and great places. This one is a great example. It is darker and more trippy than the original one in my opinion. LP did everything right in all of the chapters of their career in my opinion, but from 2000 to 2004 they were fucking untouchable. Rest in peace chester. Thank you for everything.

And 2014 the hunting party was rad with their original sound obviously nu metal rap metal and heavy metal and alternative metal hard rock and punk absolute blast

Yes I do agree hybrid theory, reanimation, & meteora are epic. Afterwards, their vibe seems changed
