A darker take of “By Myself”, “Buy Myself” was remixed by industrial rock artist Marilyn Manson.
This remix was released as a b-side of Pts.Of.Athrty and the initial iTunes and Japanese versions of Reanimation as a bonus track.
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin
I make the right moves, but I'm lost within
I put on my daily façade, but then
I just end up getting hurt again
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
By myself (Myself)
I ask why (Myself)
I can't rely on myself (Myself)
I ask why (But in my mind, I find)
I can't rely on myself
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
If I turn my back, I'm senseless
And to go blindly seems defenseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they'll take from me 'til everything is gone
If I let them go, I'll be outrun
But if I try to catch them, I'll be outdone
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
By myself (Myself)
I ask why (Myself)
I can't rely on myself (Myself)
I ask why (But in my mind, I find)
I can't rely on myself (But in my mind, I find)
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
I can't hold on to what I want when I'm stretched so thin
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
[Interlude: Mike Shinoda]
How do you think
I've lost so much?
I'm so afraid (I'm so afraid, I'm so afraid, I'm so afraid)
That I'm out of touch (hcuot fo tuo m'I)
How do you expect (How do you expect)
I will know what to do
When all I know (When all I know)
Is what you tell me to?
[Bridge: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside
Don't you know
I can't tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I can't seem to convince myself why
I'm stuck on the outside
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
I can't hold on (To what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on (To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in
I can't hold on (To what I want when I'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on (To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking

For the record, I knew he was kinda making fun of us with that title, it's very "Manson" to do that. But I liked the idea of embracing that and going with the title anyway. https://t.co/DOx1yBcfdO— Mike Shinoda (@mikeshinoda) October 9, 2020
