    The speech at the start of Victimized

    According to the twitter account @mikeshinodaclan, Mike said the intro is a recording of a random guy selling bootlegs.
    When the lights go out and we open our eyes, out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone
    Let the sun fade out and another one rise, climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone

My words hold no value, ESPECIALLY when I'm on a fan forum that exists for the sole purpose of sharing individual opinions. I am wrong to have questioned anything they've ever done. Ever.

    2 months of wondering what he says, and then not even Mike knows...

    Maybe the song's lyrics explore how the band feels about music piracy ;P

    I also tweeted that question to MSC and to @cindychipz (the girl who asked the band) so I'm glad someone asked the band!

    Imagine this guy is now selling bootleg LIVING THINGS CDs and he's oblivious to the fact his voice is on there.

    We can now conclude that that every line of VICTIMIZED is directed towards the pirates!

    For an LP song you think it would like an inspirational quote about hate in another language. NO IT'S A FUCKING BOOTLEG SELLER. WTF Mike. Seriously

    They had enough inspirational speeches on A Thousand Suns. They wanted to go outside the box this time.

    I could have sworn the guy was saying "Linkin Park."
    HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED PICTUREBOARD YET?

    The cycle repeated as explosions broke in the sky
    all that I needed was the one thing I couldn't find
    And you were there at the turn waiting to let me know
    We're building it up to break it back down
    We're building it up to burn it down
    We can't wait to burn it to the ground
    The colors conflicted as the flames climbed into the clouds
    I wanted to fix this but couldn't stop from tearing it down
    And you were there at the turn caught in the burning glow
    And I was there at the turn waiting to let you know
    You told me yes you held me high And I believed when you told that lie
    I played that soldier you played king And struck me down when I kissed that ring
    You lost that right to hold that crown I built you up but you let me down
    so when you fall I'll take my turn and fan the flames as your blazes burn

    you guys are hearing "Linkin Park" because you want to. It's just distorted and accented enough that it probably isn't what you think it is.

    This interpretation is actually becoming more plausible the more I think about it

    Mark from LP Live actually told me yesterday in Camden that Mike said the speech comes from a crazy guy outside of the venue in Indonesia last year selling unofficial LP tour shirts. That's fucking insane. It's awesome!!!! I love that guy!!!
    Been to 14 LP shows, 2 DBS shows and 1 FM show, and still going.

    That guy definitely is saying Linkin Park, especially if it was a man outside the venue selling unofficial tour shirts.
