What I've Done - Linkin Park

Lyrics:

In this farewell
There’s no blood
There’s no Alibi
‘Cause I’ve Drawn Regret
From the truth
Of a Thousand Lies

[Pre-Chorus:]
So let Mercy Come
And Wash Away
What I’ve Done

[Chorus:]
I'll face myself
To Cross out what I’ve Become
Erase Myself
And let Go of What I’ve done

Put to rest
What you Thought of Me
While I clean this Slate
With the Hands of Uncertainty

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

For What I’ve Done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m Forgiving What I’ve Done!!!

[Chorus]

What I’ve Done
Forgiving What I’ve Done

Message:
I really like Linkin Park’s video for their hit song, What I’ve Done. All of the comparisons are very interesting. In this video first the United State’s society and values are being compared to those less fortunate around the world. Then Natural wonders are compared to human creations and there are also images showing how we are destroying our world. I think the message here is that we take advantage of what we have and view things and disposable. Without really realizing it we are causing disasters and destroying our home and we can only blame ourselves, as the song says, “There’s no alibi.”
