Linkin Park has just released a live version of “Crawling” that will give you goosebumps and leave you in tears.
Global (06 December 2020) – The song is about suffering from inner pain and substance abuse and you can really feel it in Chester’s voice while he embraces his fans.
“Crawling is about feeling like I had no control over myself in terms of drugs and alcohol, hence the line ‘These wounds they will not heal,’ ” he said in a 2009 interview.
Linkin Park released the new video as part of their upcoming live album, “One More Light”, which is a document of their final tour with Chester Bennington.
