Сколько бы ни продолжалось ощущение иллюзорности бесконечной борьбы, я знаю одно: ничто не заменит путь, который есть со мной. Сколько бы ошибок я ни делал, какой бы пешкой ни являлся в чужих играх, я буду обладать великим сокровищем, даже если все определённые мной идеалы окажутся фальшью, и я окажусь отсталым среди последних. Я или кто-то ещё, что не так уж важно. И это всего лишь потому, что в конце всё в любом случае может перевернуться. Ведь в конце ничто не имеет своего значения (да, и это написанное, разумеется, тоже).

«Enth E Nd»
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try.
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme when I was obsessed with time.
All I know, time was just slipping away.
And I watched it count down to the end of the day.
Watched it watch me and the words that I say
The echo of the clock rhythm in my veins.
I know that I didn't look out below
And I watched the time go right out the window.
Trying to grab hold,
Trying not to watch,
I wasted it all on the hands of the clock.
But in the end, no matter what I pretend,
The journey is more important than the end or the start.
And what it meant to me
will eventually be
a memory of a time when I tried so hard.
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.
Hey, yo
One thing,
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try.
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme to explain in due time.
All I know, hah, I so-socialse,
Like the host of the party
I spoke, shaked, and made eye-contact,
Partied and toasted strong, all that
Northeast, Southwest coast
I'm staring out the window.
No oppourtunity to mingle.
I tried to sew it up to weaken your system.
I had you throwing up,
I brought you back into things,
Like the imaginary man of your dreams.
You'd always seem to make it worth it.
I picked skin, I never nursed it.
You felt like loving, never played real.
I'm bringing the pleasure,
By any means it means I'm leaving your team,
Hell of a team, man it seems I tried so hard
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.
One thing, I don't know how
It doesn't even matter when you look at it now.
'Cause when I designed this rhyme
I was scared of it all, scared to fall, and I hadn't even tried to crawl.
But I was forced to run with you mocking me, stopping me, backstabbing me constantly.
Remembering all the times you fought with me,
Watch the clock now chock-full of hypocrisy.
But now your mouth wishes it could inhale,
Every single little thing you said to make things fail,
Every single word you sputtered just to get your piece.
But it really doesn't matter to me.
'Cause from the start to the end, no matter what I pretend,
The journey is more important than the end or the start.
And what it meant to me
will eventually be
a memory of a time when I tried so hard.
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.
In the end
(Linkin Park)
