Linkin Park are showing that they can adapt to change. They are still very much capable of playing the heavier songs we all grew up with. Real artists adapt to change. Plus their music has been known to be somewhat a mix of rap/techno and rock, why can’t they go for something in between? Chester pretty much nailed rolling in the deep with just a keyboard accompanying him.

Song lyrics: Linkin Park – Heavy (origninally feat. Kiiara)

[Verse 1: Chester Bennington]
I don’t like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there’s comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything’s about me
Yeah, I drive myself crazy
‘Cause I can’t escape the gravity

[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Kiiara]
I’m holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what’s bringing me down
If I just let go, I’d be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?

[Verse 2: Kiiara]
You say that I’m paranoid
But I’m pretty sure the world is out to get me
It’s not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
I know I’m not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning ‘round me just the same
I know I’m not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning ‘round me just the same

[Chorus: Kiiara]
I’m holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what’s bringing me down
If I just let go, I’d be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?

[Bridge: Chester Bennington & Kiiara]
I know I’m not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning ‘round me just the same
I know I’m not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning ‘round me just the same
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything’s about me

[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Kiiara]
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what’s bringing me down
If I just let go, I’d be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
