Linkin Park - New Divide Lyrics

Artist: Linkin Park

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Chester Charl Bennington, Robert Bourdon, Brad Delson, Dave Farrell, Joseph Hahn, Mike Shinoda

I remembered black skies, the lightning all around me
I remembered each flash as time began to blur
Like a startling sign that fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide

There was nothing in sight but memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide, the ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes across this new divide

In every loss, in every lie, in every truth that you'd deny
And each regret and each goodbye was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard that I get what I deserve

So give me reason to prove me wrong, to wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason to fill this hole, connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies across this new divide
Across this new divide, across this new divide

What does this song mean to you?

    I believe this song is very deep... From what i've been through i can relate and i feel it is talking about pain. He is in pain because he feels the only one he loves is abandoned him... And he want's a reason that will get him through life without her. Because the pain is so great and he needs something to fill his empty void that she left because the truth of her leaving is so real and he knows he'll never have her back...

    I don't think this song is about just one thing....
    t could mean alot of things, maybe even something to do with 9/11. It would be great to find out for sure
    I do know, however, that this is one of the most awsome songs I know!!!!!!

    I agree with what anonymous said on September 10. I think it's about 9/11 too.

    the song means that y did he have his planet to deal with the fate of the entire universe

  • Anonymous

    I think this song is about 'The Fallen' trying to harvest our sun even though his brothers didnt dare take a sun from an inhabited planet because of lyrics like 'black skies' 'ashes fell like snow' but I dont know for sure but this is undoubtably my favorite song ever!!!!

    this song is obviously about an evil robot who uses you to get the cube of awesome greatness, and ends up getting into a fate-of-universe fight with the good guys with Megan Fox as teh girl thats only there to look at

    This song has deep, profound messages beyond it's verses. To me, new divide speaks of God's judgements against evil people, and how important forgivness is to help us cross all divides in our lives, new and old.

    This song speaks to me about God's judgements against evil people. The lyrics have deep biblical significance.

    For those who are curious about this songs lyrics its meaning is simple; it about a relationship that has a "new divide" in it because lies eventually get the way of the truth. It's why we like this song but usually don't know why, its because in a powerful way it reminds us of moments in our life of brokenness and pain; it also reminds of how directly/indirectly we tell others how we feel, with honestly or with lies.

    The reason so many people love this song is really simple reasons; one people enjoy music that they can relate to on multiple levels, two that pain and loss of anything stirs an emotional reaction within us creating a greater desire to listen. It is primarily why I find myself listening to this song over and over again; because deep down within my heart, my life has been riddled with heartache and pain, it intimately triggers an emotion response that causes me to feel past experiences that in this case bring me to my knees. 1307jediinexhile

    I luv this song soooooo much! Linkin park somehow knows that pain is relatable through love and loss. i listen 2 them all the time!

  • Anonymous

    I think the song is about a stuggle between a man and woman. And he lied or cheated, and she did the same so they find themselves in a "new divide" meaning the break up.

    this song is so awesome i listen to it everyday on you tube.com. i love ths song and the movie!

    These lyrics are mostly correct except "the distance in your eyes." I've been listening to it over and over and it sounds like "the distance in the race/rise" but it's hard to figure out. But it's not, "your eyes" just waned to point out. XD I love this song and have been listening to Linkin Park since the beginning. I still love their music and find myself going back to Hybrid Theory.
