Breaking The Habit

Tim is a great fan of Linkin Park and he told me that Linkin Park will be playing a live concert on 01-11-2010 in Switzerland and that he already got a ticket. Now I maybe have a good memory but names I always forget and the name Linkin Park did not blow a whistle of recognition in my head. So than he said that he always plays it when he is DJing at our parties. That just made me feel worse. The favorite group of my love and I did not know. Happily he did forgive me and send me the song from You Tube. That song I did know

Okay but what is a habit?
In psychology habits are routines of behavior that are repeated regularly and tend to occur subconsciously, without one being conscious about them. Habit, when used in the context of biology, refers to the instinctive actions of animals and the natural tendencies of plants. And there is the religious habit. A distinctive set of garments worn by members of a religious order.
                                                          And Linkin Park?

Linkin Park is an American rock band from Agoura Hills, California. Formed in 1996, the band rose to international fame with their debut album, Hybrid Theory, which was certified Diamond by the RIAA in 2005 and multi-platinum in several other countries. Its following studio album, Meteora, continued the band's success, topping the Billboard 200’s album charts in 2003, and was followed by extensive touring and charity work around the world. In 2003, MTV named Linkin Park the sixth greatest band of the music video era and the third best of the new millennium behind Oasis and Coldplay.

"Breaking the Habit" was released as the sixth and final single from their second album, Meteora. It became the fifth consecutive single from Meteora to reach #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart, a feat unmatched by any other artist in the history of that chart. It was also the third single from the album to reach #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The song was a hit, peaking at #20 on the Billboard Hot 100.
A common misconception about "Breaking the Habit" song is that it was written by lead singer Chester Bennington, when in fact, band member Mike Shinoda was the original writer. The song was based on a close friend's drug addiction. It is a common idea that it was written about Bennington due to his extended drug abuse issues, although Shinoda began writing the song before he met Bennington. The rumour has its roots in Bennington's reluctance to play the song at early live shows, because he was able to relate to it so closely.
The music video for "Breaking the Habit" was directed by Joe Hahn and uses an anime-style animation which was supervised by Kazuto Nakazawa.

"Breaking The Habit"

Memories consume

Like opening the wound

I'm picking me apart again

You all assume

I'm safe here in my room

Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one

The battles always choose

'Cause inside I realize

That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

I don't know why I instigate

And say what I don't mean

I don't know how I got this way

I know it's not alright

So I'm breaking the habit

I'm breaking the habit

Tonight

Clutching my cure

I tightly lock the door

I try to catch my breath again

I hurt much more

Than anytime before

I had no options left again

I don't want to be the one

The battles always choose

'Cause inside I realize

That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

I don't know why I instigate

And say what I don't mean

I don't know how I got this way

I'll never be alright

So, I'm breaking the habit

I'm breaking the habit

Tonight

I'll paint it on the walls

'Cause I'm the one at fault

I'll never fight again

And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

But now I have some clarity

to show you what I mean

I don't know how I got this way

I'll never be alright

So, I'm breaking the habit

I'm breaking the habit

I’m breaking the habit

Tonight
