Nice Discussion :)

   For me it is the same as yours' (In The End, Crawling, By Myself) but also add Runaway to the mix. Those four songs describe me the most of the songs off the album. Crawling is my favorite song by them; I think they wrote it about Chester's previous addiction to Meth, but to me it just means a lot about emotional angst  and also keeping stuff inside you instead of expressing yourself, which has terrible results. Runaway reminds me of actual physical moments where the pain made me feel like running away, and I look back at those times when I listen and feel glad that I didn't. By Myself (to me) is about overwhelming stress, and an inevitable tragic ending, and being all alone in the world, being the bad guy who isn't really bad inside, or just being stuck in-between. And In The End I can relate to hopelessness, which ironically when I listen to it I gain more hope; I wonder why?

Papercut, cuz: "It's like i'm/paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a/whirlwind inside of my head
It's like i/can't stop what i'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin"

One Step
Closer, cuz: "I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything i've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance...

I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish i could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again..."

By Myself, cuz: "I can't hold on
(To what i want when i'm stretched so thin)
It's all too much to take in
I can't hold on
(To anything watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in"

Yeah papercut and One step closer are good ones too. Actually I think all of them are descriptive of life. Everyone feels like there's a whirlwind inside of their head and they can't stop what they're hearing within, all the bad thoughts, the failure, and then this train of thought goes into By Myself. But I don't think I really relate to One Step Closer mostly, because by nature I'm usually a Pacifist, and don't feel those feelings of anger that often. But I can't say it hasn't happened at all in my life, I've had my share of that mess. So back on topic, no wonder the album's sold 24 million copies, because of how it relates to life . . . and hopes of healing

One Step Closer describes my life the most

All of them can describe my life in general... But probably "Papercut" , "One step closer" and "By Myslef" describe it best.
