It starts with
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 the due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down till the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Its so unreal
You didn't look out below,
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin' to hold on
Didn't even know, I wasted it all
Just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried
It all fell apart
What its meant to be
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 loose 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...
Despite 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 parent the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Now 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 be, 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 loose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far, as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
Ive put my trust, in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres 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 loose it all,
But in the end, it doesn't even matter

In the End is the eighth track from the debut album. The song was a big Modern Rock hit, reaching #1 on the chart in 2001. In the End is their highest charting single in most countries. It is widely regarded as Linkin Park's most famous song, and the one which best describes their musical style (a melodic interplay between Chester Bennington's singing/yelling and Mike Shinoda's rapping). This song is mainly based on one person's failure. It is considered symbolic of an ending relationship. The music video takes place in a fantasy setting and uses massive CGI animation. It won the "Best Rock Video" at the 2002 MTV Awards. Although there is a keyboard loop in this song, the video does not show Mike, who is a pianist in the group, or anyone else playing a keyboard in any scene of the video. However, Joe Hahn is shown using a MIDI pad to emulate the piano loop at the end. During the commentary of the video on Frat Party at the Pankake Festival, Nathan Cox says that Elton John was the one who was actually playing piano.
