One Step Closer ~ Linkin Park  


Linkin Park was formed in 1996 by three high school friends from Agoura Hills, California. Their first album, Hybrid Theory was released in October 2000 and contained In the End, One Step Closer, and Crawling.

They get their sound from intertwined “Nu Metal” and “Rap Rock”, with influences and elements from hip-hop, alternative rock, and electronica, which gives them somewhat of a cross-over popularity.

One Step Closer

The original title for the song was “Plaster”. The band say they created “One Step Closer” while struggling on “Runaway”, the sixth track from Hybrid Theory. The single was released in 2001, achieving notable success in Australia, but moderate success in the UK and U.S.

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’ll say
You’ll find that out anyway

Just like before…

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

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

Just like before…
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
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I’m one step closer to the edge
And I’m about to
break

Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up

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

    I have gotten a few requests from people who want to donate money to keep this site up and running.  While it feels really strange for me to accept money for what is essentially a hobby for me, I guess I could always accept help in paying for the ever-increasing hosting costs.

    So if you like what you see here, feel free to add to my "tip jar".
