Silmaril

'Crawling' by Linkin Park reminds me of Frodo:

'crawling in my skin
these wounds they will not heal
fear is how I fall
confusing what is real'

The wounds are the wraith wound and the missing finger, the fear and confusion is the wraiths themselves.

'there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
consuming/confusing
this lack of self-control I fear is never ending
controlling/I can't seem'

The lack of self control is the ring's power.

'to find myself again
my walls are closing in
I've felt this way before
so insecure
discomfort,
endlessly has pulled itself upon me
distracting/reacting
against my will
I stand beside my own reflection
it's haunting how I can't seem...
to find myself again."

When he stands in front of the mirror at Rivendell, he sees a younger version of himself but who's seen much more. There is more to the song, but it doesn't remind me much of LOTR after that.
