Leave Out All The Rest by Linkin Park

Favorite band ko na ang Linkin Park simula nang mahilig ako sa alternative music. Noon, ikinakahiya kong gusto ko sila kasi, sabi ni Korn, para daw silang boyband. Ngayon, okay lang. Hindi naman ako fan na fan nila. Crush ko lang talaga si Mike Shinoda. :)

I heard this song from my music library. Dinownload ko lang ata 'to noong naghahanap ako ng mga Minutes to Midnight songs. Hindi ako aware na sikat pala ang Leave Out All the Rest nung nagustuhan ko na siya. Isa siguro 'to sa mga rare songs na magugustuhan mo na talaga sa unang pakikinig mo pa lang.

Maganda ang message ng kanta. Nakakarelate ako, though, hindi naman ako superduper makasalanang tao. Pero, gaya mo at ng lahat, makasalanan di naman ako. Kaya sana, "When my time comes forget the wrong that I've done. Let me leave behind some reasons to be missed."

'Pag namatay ako, sana ito ang tugtog.

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

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

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shed but I'm me

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

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

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

N0te: Alay ko 'to sa mga taong nasa redemption. It's never too late for change no matter how mean you were. :)
