the song's alright...the video for it is horrendous. really pointless.
what I thought this song meant is that no matter what you do in your life or who you attempt to impress, when it comes down to it, it was all for nothing...so all that effort and time was wasted on something that never really mattered
my bf & i had just broken up when i first heard this song. i love the lyrics & everything else about this song. this song describes how things were towards the end, so perfectly that it's scary. i talked 2 him a few weeks ago & he asked me if i knew who linkin park was cuz he thought that they're so great. a friend of mine was makin fun of us cuz we got a song (this song)after we broke up
I thought this was a site where one writes their interpretation of the lyrics of a song, not where you simply say thst you are so cool because you listened to the band before everyone else. Or that you don't like the band......if this is the case go visit a site with a band you do like and make a posative intellectual comment.
vamp, either make a useful comment next time or don't say anything. Anyways, Linkin Park kicks ass, despite what people say. Everytime some band gets overplayed people complain like little whiny bitches, and then that band is considered a sellout when they show up on TRL. Well, it's not the band's fault if they show up there, it's the so-called fans' fault. People call Linkin Park the "loudest boy band in the world," but those people need their brains checked anyways. To me, In The End is about a person who has done everything he possibly could to make him and other people happy, but when it all comes down to it they don't appreciate him so he winds up spending everyday in his self-loathing.
I like this song a lot... My friend brought me the LP album as a New Year's present, and I loved it. Linkin Park are a great group! ;o)
