[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
Today, we stood on the wall
We laughed at the sun, we laughed at the guns
We laughed at it all
And when they, they told us to go
We paid them no mind like every other time
But little did we know


[Bridge: Mike Shinoda, Eminem, Chester Bennington]
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I've been down that road
And now I'm back, sittin' on square one
Tryin' to pick myself up where I started from

[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
Today, I looked for a sign
With flames in my hands
A line in the sand between yours and mine
And it came like fire from below
Your greed led the call, my flag had to fall
But little did you know

[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Just washing it aside
All of my helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change
Just washing it aside
All of my helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change

[Interlude: Mike Shinoda]
Today....

[Verse 3: Eminem]
If I was froze inside of a moment
If I could capture time inside a capsule, an hourglass full
Of sand in the palm of my hand, it passes through it
If I can grasp it and just control what happens to it
Then I can trap it, so no more time elapses through it
If raps could do it, maybe I could tap into it
Then I could try to channel it through Cadillacs and Buicks
To transmit through 'em, to make you put your ass into it
And that's when you hit the roof because you can't sit through it
Your passions too much for you to not be dancin' to it
And as you do it, your movements become fast and fluent
You're mashin' to it, moshin' 'til you're black and bluish
You're actin' foolish, this music it has influenced
You to be rowdy but in an orderly fashion, true it's
Chaotic but it's got your body movin' as a unit
Unitin' together tonight, so make it last and you just—


[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Just washing it aside
All of my helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change
Just washing it aside
All of my helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change

[Bridge: Eminem]
I've been down that road
And now I'm back, sittin' on square one
Tryin' to pick myself up where I started from
Lord knows I was right, ‘cause you just crossed the line

[Refrain: Mike Shinoda]
Today, we stood on the wall
We laughed at the sun, we laughed at the guns
We laughed at it all
And when they, they told us to go
We paid them no mind like every other time
But little did we know
