Foreword Don't Stay Somewhere I Belong Lying From You Hit The Floor Easier To Run Faint Figure.09 Breaking The Habit From The Inside Nobody's Listening Session Numb

"Breaking The Habit" is the ninth song on Linkin Park's sophomore album Meteora. It was released as the fifth and final single from the record on June 14, 2004. It's music video is completely animated in the style of a Japanese anime.

Background

In March 2003, Mike Shinoda did a track-by-track of Meteora for ShoutWeb. About "Breaking The Habit", he said:

""Breaking The Habit" is a really interesting song. It will stand out to a lot of people as a different sound for us. It's very obviously Linkin Park but there are live strings and there is live piano. The guitar doesn't ever hit 11. Basically, the way the song started was as an interlude. It was going to be an instrumental track that was ten minutes long. The guys convinced me to turn it into a full song with verses and choruses and whatnot and add some lyrics. Well, five years ago or something I tried to write this other song that never came together. I had tried it 20 different times and it never worked because it was always cheesy or it was too dark or it was too melodramatic or something and I always ended up scrapping it. When I tried it out on this song and the lyrics were finished in two hours, I couldn't believe it. I mean, this is a song I had been trying to write for five years and it just came together in two hours. It was amazing. It finally came together and I'm really happy about that. I'm proud of that song in a lot of ways. I put a lot of work into it. From the beat, to the strings, to the piano, to the vocals, I put a lot of work in and the guys were really supportive. I had a lot if great suggestions and helpful criticism and that's why the song came out really well for me. It's easy for me to say that I love the song because I wrote so much of it. I just think it's a really powerful song. Chester's performance on it is one of his best.

Lyrically, it's kind of just about getting away from the parts of you that you do not like. It goes into great deal about that type of situation. The things about our lyrics in general is that we spend so much time on them that there is no way I can tell you in conversation any better than the actual lyrics. If I sit here and think up something, that's an off-the-top-of-my-head summary of what those lyrics are about whereas those lyrics took five years to do. So those lyrics are the most accurate depiction of what that's about, not what I can tell you."

On the Meteora booklet, the band wrote, "Mike had been trying to write a song around this lyrical idea for over five years. He tried this theme a number of times, but nothing seemed to do the song justice. Meanwhile, during the process of putting together this album, Mike began working on an interlude, crossing a digitally manipulated beat with strings and piano. Unexpectedly, Brad and Joe suggested that Mike turn the two-minute interlude into a full song. Tentatively titled "Drawing," this piece was extended to three minutes and 16 seconds when Mike took it home to write lyrics, in less than two hours, the lyrics that he had been trying to put together for years fell into place. With some finishing touches, live piano and live strings, the song was finally complete - six years in the making."

In an interview with Yahoo! Launch on October 12, 2003, Mike pointed out the differences between their (at the time two) studio albums saying, "One of the big differences people will notice between Hybrid Theory and Meteora is just simply the use of different instruments, different textures and moods. For example, in "Breaking The Habit" we have live strings and piano, in "Faint" we have live strings. You'll notice Japanese flute here and there, we'll use different samples that will basically create a new mood, create a vibe in the song. The songs still have the Linkin Park sound--they have the dynamics, the heaviness, the things that make it sound like us. But we did try to experiment with different sounds and time signatures and tempos, all these different things just to make it feel a little bit different."

Phoenix said about the song, ""Breaking the Habit" was originally written as an interlude. And Brad suggested to Mike, "Why don’t we try an see where this goes as a song? It sounds promising, different from anything we've ever done." There's element to it that's distinctive and really cool. And so Mike went home, worked on it all night and put these lyrics down that he's been working on for almost five years, but never really got to finish it. The lyrics just being in a situation dealing with change that you want in your life and trying to make it a change that in yourself is a positive change and being able to move forward from that."

Mike added to this story in 2023, saying, "We knew the bar was so high and it was a good energy. It was a fun record to make, it was not negative, it was not stressful. I remember asking guys to "stretch", Joe asked me, I had this demo that was intended to be an electronic instrumental track. Like the Meteora version of "Cure for the Itch." And a few guys said but Joe in particular said, "I think this song needs vocals, it's going to be a good song - it could be a good song." I took it home, I had this idea for a song that I had tried a few times and it didn't work out. It popped into my head and I tried it over the top of this thing and it became "Breaking the Habit." A lot of my stuff that I'd write, it would take many many weeks to get to a place where it sounded like the song. This one immediately sounded like the song. This one, I was playing piano and singing. I turned off the track. I started playing the song and I did it - within a few hours it was done. Sometime you tap into something and it's the song. I feel like "In The End" was that way. To some degree "One More Light" was like that."

Brad said, "Creatively, Breaking the Habit is one of the songs we're most proud of. It's so familiar, but at the same time it's so foreign to anything we've ever done. It really is just a unique animal, and when we approach making the next record, I definitely hope to build on some of the techniques we used for Breaking the Habit. Obviously, we'll retain some of the elements our fans know us and love us for, but we like to push the envelope and challenge ourselves creatively whenever we go and do something new."

In an interview with NYRock in May 2003, Mike also mentioned "Breaking The Habit" and "Faint" as being "faster than any songs we've ever written" and also said "Breaking The Habit" was the only song on the album he wrote all the lyrics on.

According to the "Breaking The Habit" manga, "Meteora's ninth track was the first to be completed in the studio." The string parts were written on keyboard, but the band decided they wanted the strings to be played live. The string arranger and conductor was David Campbell. David took Mike's parts, wrote them out for violins, cellos, etc and had ten people play the parts. The band liked it and overlayed the ten people playing so they sounded like forty people on the final mix.

The scratches on "Breaking The Habit" comes from the same sample which is also used as the basis of the scratching in "Points Of Authority"

Chester Bennington has stated many times over the years that "Breaking The Habit" is his favorite Linkin Park song. During a LPU chat in 2003, he joked saying "I'm almost pissed off that we wrote it because I like it that much. If someone else had written it I could play it all the time but if I do that people will think I am a narcasistic punk." Chester says it is the song that connects with him the most on the emotional side. He felt like Mike was writing about his life and had a hard time recording the song because he would always start crying inside the vocal booth. Despite this, Chester recorded all the vocals to "Breaking The Habit" in a single afternoon.

In 2023, Mike said, "...we never wanted to be part of a genre. We wanted to change the approach, and the idea of genre as a concept. We wrote this song called "Breaking the Habit." We made the label promise we could release it as a single. We were like, "Guys, this is so important for the band to have a song out that has no heavy guitars, no screaming, no metal at all." It’s mostly sampled — programmed drum beats and strings [are] the meat and potatoes of the track — to let people know that we don’t subscribe to this idea of what the band is supposed to sound like."

Demos

Linkin Park released a demo for "Breaking The Habit" on the LP Underground 9: Demos album in November 2009, titled "Drawing."

"Drawing" is an instrumental version of "Breaking The Habit" and is likely some form of the instrumental interlude that Mike was intending to do. The track features DJ-style samples growing progressively throughout the song, but it is structured similarly to the final version of the song.

Another demo of the song was released in 2014 as a part of the LP Underground XIV album. This version of the song features Mike on vocals and is similar to the final version of the song lyrically, melodically and instrumentally.

On an LPU exclusive video released on January 30, 2015 and entitled "Track By Track With Brad - 2", Brad Delson spoke about the second demo: "Cool, so this is a really special demo. This is a demo of "Breaking The Habit" from 2002. I think it's called "The Mike Shinoda Version". Mike is a fantastic songwriter and he's really proactive in bringing ideas to the band. He starts a preponderance of our demos and songs on which we all wind up working, and you can actually hear him singing on this one. This song was written really quickly. I think he had this very specific idea in mind and was able to do the music and vocals in a very short matter of time, brought it to Chester, and Chester had a very personal visceral reaction to the lyrical content. And ultimately, you hear Chester singing it, and certainly these lyrics are interestingly vocal authentic to Chester and to Mike who wrote the song. And, again, some of the best songs, you know, happen so fast, and then there's songs we love we take 2 or 3 years to write, so this is definitely one that was just meant to be."

Music Video

Mr. Hahn Version

The music video for "Breaking The Habit" was directed by Joe Hahn and was inspired by the fans who tell the band that their music has helped them with their lives. The video illustrates the interconnectivity of individuals struggling to break their respective habits. The emotion that comes from the band's rooftop performance symbolizes the release of tension that's been escalating throughout the story.

Joe originally wrote the video treatment with the intention of it being live-action, but upon meeting with the Japanese animators at GDH, decided that an animated video would be more exciting. "Breaking The Habit" was animated by GDH and led by Kazuto Nakazawa, who created the animation sequence in Kill Bill Vol. 1 and designed the characters for the anime series, "El Hazard." Before returning to Japan to begin the animation, Nakazawa sketched the band as they performed, capturing each band member's facial expressions and unique physicality. This was filmed on December 17 and 28, 2003 in Los Angeles, just after the band's final shows of 2003.

The "Breaking The Habit" production designer, Patrick Tatopoulos, was also production designer for some of Linkin Park's other videos as well as movies such as "I, Robot", "Dark City", "Battlefield Earth" and "Independence Day".

A making of was released as part of the "Breaking The Habit" DVD.

Live

"Breaking The Habit" was rehearsed in the beginning of 2003 to be played on the LPU 2003 Tour, but never got its debut until the Smoke Out performance in the winter of 2003, being played after "Runaway" and with a long piano intro, which the song was played with until the end of the Meteora cycle. The short, US holiday radio show run at the end of 2003 had the song after "Somewhere I Belong". During the 2004 North American Tour, "Breaking The Habit" was played after "Nobody's Listening". Once the band embarked on their international tour in the summer of 2004, "Breaking The Habit" was played after "From The Inside", a position it maintained until the end of 2004 with the exception of the performance for MTV Ultimate Mash Up, where the song was played after "Step Up/Nobody's Listening/It's Goin' Down". The song was also given a guitar transition outro into "Numb" on Projekt Revolution 2004. "Breaking The Habit" was included in both shows in 2005, with it being after "Frgt/10" and "Somewhere I Belong", respectively. During the Japan shows in 2006, "Breaking The Habit" closed all four shows, making it the first song to close a full show that wasn't "One Step Closer". It also was played with a new piano outro with Chester singing the chorus, and with a shorter piano intro than what was played previously.

Once the band starting touring in support of Minutes To Midnight, "Breaking The Habit" was played after the piano version of "Pushing Me Away". It stayed in this position until the band started rotating setlists on Projekt Revolution 2007. Sets A, B, and C all had the song being performed after "Pushing Me Away", while set D had the song after "Hands Held High" and the one-off set for Camden had the song after "Cure For The Itch" in the encore. The remaining shows in 2007 kept these positions for the song, but the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas show had the song after "My December", and had a brief "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" intro before Mike played the usual intro for "Breaking The Habit". The 2008 Winter European tour had "Breaking The Habit in new spots in the set. Set R had the song after "Shadow Of The Day", set S had the song after "My December", and set T had the song closing the first encore. "Breaking The Habit" was also given a new outro, with Chester singing the chorus of the song over some of the sampled strings from the song, and the song was given a slightly longer piano intro for this tour, with a bit more improvisation from Mike. The song didn't change positions until the summer European tour, with set X having the song after "The Little Things Give You Away", set Y having the song in the encore after "Pushing Me Away", and set Z having the song mid-set after "Pushing Me Away". The Edgefest show had the song open the show for the first time ever, and it was the only performance of a piano version of "Breaking The Habit" to date. The song maintained these positions until 2009, where the song was played after "Numb".

"Breaking The Habit" was played with less frequency in 2010, with it only being included in the one-off New York City show after "Iridescent", and in sets A-1, A-3, and the Madrid performance after "Numb". During the 2011 North American tour, "Breaking The Habit" was played after "Numb" in every set that it was included in, which were sets A-1, C-5, and C-6. It was added to one performance of set B-13 in New York, and it was moved to after "Shadow Of The Day" at the show in Las Vegas. The song didn't change positions for the rest of the A Thousand Suns cycle.

During the Living Things cycle, "Breaking The Habit" didn't move at all. At every show, it was played after "Waiting For The End". The only instance of the song not being performed after "Waiting For The End" was at a private rehearsal in 2013, where the song was performed after "Lost In The Echo", and "Breaking The Habit" wasn't even going to played initially. It was a fan request, being played instead of "Numb".

"Breaking The Habit" maintained its positions from the Living Things cycle at the first few shows of 2014, being played after "Waiting For The End". Following these shows, the song was dropped at the start of The Hunting Party World Tour, and wasn't played at all until the summer of 2015, when the full version of the US Festival setlist was performed. The song was performed after "New Divide".

"Breaking The Habit" returned to the sets from the start of the One More Light tour, keeping its position after "Waiting For The End." The acapella outro to the song returned for the first time since 2011, and the song stayed virtually unmoved and unchanged for the entire tour. The song was not performed at the Hollywood Bowl tribute show for Chester due to the nature of its lyrics. Mike has said it's unlikely they'll ever play this song again.

Lyrics

Album Version

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
‘Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again
 
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
‘Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Demo

Down on the floor
Back behind the door
I try to catch my breath again
I can't ignore
What's back behind the door
Wondering what's next again

I can say that you're the one
The battles always choose
But sometimes I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what we're fighting for
Or why we have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how we got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Memories consume, pacing in the room
Cleaning broken glass again
Suddenly soon, you're leaving from the room
It's happening so fast again

I can say that you're the one
The battles always choose
But sometimes I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what we're fighting for
Or why we have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how we got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Crashing into walls
It never was your fault
So here we are again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what we're fighting for
Or why we have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how we got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight
