It's okay, Chester.

Info

A shockwave hit her. A huge part of her childhood shattered in pieces.

His absence leaves a void that can never be filled. The way he opens up with his problems, the way he sings about all those demons have touched so many lives. Fearlessly putting them on display, Chester brings people together, including those who turn their back on nu metal.

"What I've done" brought her to Linkin Park. But "Numb" brought her closer to Chester. It was magical, he actually saw her, even if she's invisible to the world.
She has been bullied for several years. She survived through the storm with the voice of Chester in her iPod. He did not save her, but stood by her side.

Her heart is broken.
Not because of his leaving;
it's because of the demons he's got to deal with,
because of the fact that he inspired so many lives but not his,
because he thought death is the only way for him to set himself free.

But hey, "keep me and your memories, leave out all the rest", right? Guess right now he's somewhere singing with his best friend about all the angels.

She loves him and misses him so much.
Until she see him again,
Until we see you again,
Thank you.

Chester Bennington has become a friend to so many people who can relate to his music, their music. I am disheartened of his departure, even though we can understand how it came to be. Some pretty bad things happen in life. Chester was precious. His music will sing forever in our hearts. (That's some pretty deep scars for us.)

Agree on that! I didn't feel very upset about his departure, it just feels like there's something huge missing, at the moment, in the future. We wouldn't be able to expect any new LP albums soon.
