Song of the Moment LVIII: Linkin Park’s “In the End”

This post is a part of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024).

3 days left before December 5, my birthday, and I’m back to having the birthday blues with a mix of frustration. Why? Normally I explain the cause of melancholy and frustration here on The Diary, but tonight I don’t feel like explaining at all. All I can tell is that I’m sad and frustrated and I think I will bring those feelings to my birthday itself. This is hopeless.

Speaking of hopeless, let me share my Song of the Moment: the perfect Linkin Park song about hopelessness and the band’s signature song, “In the End”.

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn’t even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn’t even matter

Linkin Park’s “In the End”

3 days left before my birthday, and I feel like this…

See you tomorrow.

Song of the Moment L: Linkin Park’s “Waiting for the End”

As I mentioned, I’m listening to all Linkin Park albums in chronological order. I’m done with the band’s 3rd studio album Minutes to Midnight last Thursday. Now I’m listening to their 4th studio album A Thousand Suns, and once again they are singing what I’m feeling – this time with “Waiting for the End”.

So, I’m picking up the pieces now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again

Song of the Moment XLIII: Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die with a Smile”

Now that the weekend has begun, I’m enjoying a glass of my favorite Jack and Coke Zero while listening to my new favorite song, “Die with a Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars.

If the world was ending
I’d wanna be next to you
If the party was over
And our time on Earth was through
I’d wanna hold you just for a while
And die with a smile
If the world was ending
I’d wanna be next to you

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die with a Smile”

I never expected this collaboration of 2 ultra-talented icons, but I’m so glad they teamed up. I can’t get enough of the soft rock instrumentals and the relevant lyrics hit my very heart. “Die with a Smile” may be my favorite song of 2024 yet.

Now let me drink and listen to this song in peace. Happy weekend, everyone!
