I honestly think that this is one of Linkin Park's most stunning songs. If you're at all interested, Tom Waits has a song called "Hell Broke Luce". Also a commentary on war, it has an intense music video with stunning visuals and brutal lyrics.
Beautiful song ❤ It was great listening to your interpretation of the lyrics, I think you have a really interesting view of it! There is no right answer really. Even band members have different interpretations of it; I remember watching an interview where Chester talked about him and Mike's different ways of relating to the lyrics as they worked on them. Mike had the idea a soldier returning home from war and struggling with how to reintegrate into civilian life, or similarly, how other experiences can leave you traumatised and alienated from society and even friends and family. Chester, on the other hand, related to the lyrics in a way that was very him. He envisioned himself as this flaw or crack, something bad, but that when you zoomed out, you could see that it was part of this beautiful "castle of glass", a magical castle in the clouds; you might be flawed, but you're surrounded by a beautiful world and all this good, and you just need to shift your perspective of being so centered on your own flawed nature. That was so Chester, to think so poorly of himself, and so much more highly of the world around him. I love how the rich symbolism/poetic language of the song makes people speculate. The important part isn't the "right answer", but rather that the song makes you turn things over and wonder, reflecting inward on yourself, or outward on the world and the people in it.
Though "Bleed It Out" also qualifies, since it's sort of like a rockier version of a country barn dance song, with Mike as the "Swing your partner do si do" guy. He described the song as "A fucking bizarre death-party-rap-hoedown!" "So why try ignoring him? Make it a dirt dance floor again Say your prayers and stomp it out When they bring that chorus in"

Best song ever.
The arrangement and vocals were PERFECT.
Until someone thought it was a great idea to remix it live. Smh.
React to dua lipa new song training season from 3rd album radical optimism
Who would have ever thought Linkin Park would write a country song.
Which song is country?
@@selfishstockton6123 This one. Castle of Glass.
@@PenneySounds nope, not even a little bit
@@connorplume4700 Yeah, it clearly is. It's even more obvious if you watch the Video Game Awards performance. It almost goes full bluegrass.
