    Update March 14 2017: Official release is coming Friday March 17. Confirmed by Linkin Park on Twitter:


    The full song 'Battle Symphony' has leaked online. Please do not post download links but feel free to discuss the track here.

    Linkin Park's next song to be released from One More Light has found its way online. 'Battle Symphony' has leaked in full following the track length being revealed via iTunes a couple days back. Rumours point to the song being initially set for release on the 16th or 17th of March, later this week. Any audio clips are being being removed by WMG but you can read the lyrics below:

    BATTLE SYMPHONY LYRICS

    I got a long to way to go
    And a long memory
    I've been searching for an answer
    Always just out of reach
    Blood on the floor
    Sirens repeat
    I've been searching for the courage to face my enemies

    When they turn down the lights
    I hear my battle symphony
    All the world in front of me
    If my armour breaks
    I'll fuse it back together
    Battle symphony
    Please just don't give up on me
    And my eyes are wide awake

    For my battle symphony
    For my battle symphony

    You say that I don't belong
    You say that I should retreat
    That I'm marching to the rhythm of a lonesome defeat
    But the sound of your voice
    Puts the pain in the reverse
    No surrender, no illusions
    And for better or worse

    When they turn down the lights
    I hear my battle symphony
    All the world in front of me
    If my armour breaks
    I'll fuse it back together
    Battle symphony
    Please just don't give up on me
    And my eyes are wide awake

    If I fall, get knocked down
    Pick myself up off the ground
    If I fall, get knocked down
    Pick myself up off the ground

    When they turn down the lights
    I hear my battle symphony
    All the world in front of me
    If my armour breaks
    I'll fuse it back together
    Battle symphony
    Please just don't give up on me
    And my eyes are wide awake

    For my battle symphony
    For my battle symphony

    For the less audio astute, let's nip this in the bud now: The abrupt transition means that this is two previews stitched together, don't expect the actual song to be that sudden. I feel like I gotta point this out because it might not be clear to some people.

    I dig this. Looking forward to hearing these moments in the context of the full song before I judge further.

    The vocal style of Chester will be, without a doubt, one of the biggest changes on this record.

    We literally asked not to post downloads in the first line of the thread. Please do not ask for links either.

    Was bound to happen. I mean, I'm just surprised the band managed to prevent any leak at all for 'Heavy'.

    Verses sound good! Chorus is really catchy. I think this could grow on me.

    Edit: First verse reminds me of Chester's WFTE vocals.

    I don't see how it's bound to happen for a digital single. Physical CD's on the other hand are different.
