  • Tell me what I've gotta do
    There's no getting through to you
    The lights are on but nobody's home (nobody's home)
    You say I can't understand
    But you're not giving me a chance
    When you leave me, where do you go? (Where do you go?)

    All the walls that you keep building
    All this time that I spent chasing
    All the ways that I keep losing you

    The truth is, you turn into someone else
    You keep running like the sky is falling
    I can whisper, I can yell
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm just talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm just talking to myself

    I admit I made mistakes
    But yours might cost you everything
    Can't you hear me calling you home?

    All the walls that you keep building
    All this time that I spent chasing
    All the ways that I keep losing you

    The truth is, you turn into someone else
    You keep running like the sky is falling
    I can whisper, I can yell
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm just talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm just talking to myself

    All the walls that you keep building
    All this time that I spent chasing
    All the ways that I keep losing you

    The truth is, you turn into someone else
    You keep running like the sky is falling
    I can whisper, I can yell
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm just talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    Talking to myself
    But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know
    I'm talking to myself Writer/s: BRAD DELSON, CHESTER CHARLES BENNINGTON, DAVE FARRELL, ILSEY ANNA JUBER, JONATHAN ROTEM, JOSEPH HAHN, MIKE SHINODA, ROBERT G. BOURDON
