For lovers of rock music, nu-metal and 2000s rock...
Chester Charles Bennington was born on March 20, 1976 in Arizona.When she was just seven years old, she was sexually abused by someone older than her.He couldn't tell anyone for years.During those years, Chester always felt ”dirty“ and ”guilty".
When her parents divorced, her child heart was broken even more. She was bullied at school and left without any friends. She started to pour all this loneliness and anger onto paper and write songsWhen her parents divorced, her child heart was broken even more. She was bullied at school and left without any friends.

She started to pour all this loneliness and anger onto paper and write songs.Because he couldn't control anything else, but the music was full of his words.
Although a person may seem quiet from the outside, sometimes storms break out inside, or he had such a childhood.
In her youth, her dream job was clear: to be a singer. But real life treated her very cruelly. (And who hasn't been treated that way?)
Due to economic difficulties, he also worked at a hamburger shop for a while.While his peers were out walking, he was making burgers, washing dishes.Because he had to survive instead of living his dreams.Due to economic difficulties, he also worked at a hamburger shop for a while.While his peers were out walking, he was making burgers, washing dishes.Because heDue to economic difficulties, he also worked at a hamburger shop for a while.While his peers were out walking, he was making burgers, washing dishes.Because he had toDue to economic difficulties, he also worked at a hamburger shop for a while.While his peers were out walking, he was making burgers, washing dishes.Because he had to survive instead of living his dreams.
His family expected him to ”finish school, get a decent job, be a smart guy".
Even if the place is America, the expectations of the family are always the same.But the voice inside Chester always whispered something else:"You have to be yourself.”
Can't you see he's choking me?
You hold it so tight, afraid of losing control
Because everything you thought I could be fell to pieces in front of you
You want to be something, for example, you want to do business, you want to be a football player, but someone has tried it in the family before and failed. Because of this, your family also prevents you from doing this, his concern may be losing control, but he does not realize how much he bores us.
He did not give up his passion for music while in high school.His first band was Sean Dowdell and His Friends? he recorded several demos with.Then he became a vocalist for a band called Grey Daze; they played small concerts around Phoenix.But these were not enough for Chester; he believed that he could fill the void inside just by singing. And he couldn't make money from this job, he had to make a living.
He left Grey Daze, took a break from music for a while; worked in the office and cafes.He struggled with drugs and alcohol.On the one hand, he was trying to take control of life; on the other hand, he could not silence that child inside him.
I'm so numb that I can't feel your presence
I'm so tired of being aware of everything
All I want is to be more myself
And to be less like you
And in 1999, life opened the door for him.With the recommendation of a record company, Chester sent the demo recording to Los Angeles.The band's name is Xero (later to become Linkin Park).
As soon as they heard his voice, Mike Shinoda and the team said, “that's him.”Chester flew to Los Angeles on a plane ticket... and his life changed.
He was no longer just a singing boy;he became the voice, heart and soul of a band.
the album Hybrid Theory, released in 2000, exploded worldwide.It sold millions of copies, Chester was now a star on the stages, admired by thousands of people.
However, the biggest miracle for him was not just to become famous:he had really become the person he wanted to be.
when they released this song in 2003, it was like a letter Chester wrote to himself and everyone when he was a child.
"I've tried everything, but I couldn't be the way you wanted."
When he was a child, he tried to get into the roles that his family, society and life had created.But he finally understood: if you can't be the person you want to be, you can't live even if you're already breathing.
Numb is the voice of the most fragile child inside Chester oldu.Ve it is also the voice of millions around the world who feel ”inadequate".
Most of the time, we are forced to live like someone other people want to see.But deep down, we know very well who we are.
