[@Kenner88]

This track is proof that Mike was a lyrical beast. Almost seems like he was being restrained for the "general audiences". Love it

[@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py]

It's why Mike is so criminally underrated as a songwriter, producer, and vocalist. He is really selfless that he knew that Chester would be the focal point of the band that he stepped aside, just as he did with Fort Minor. It sucks that his own fanbase dont show him just as much love as Chester (not to take away from him). His is the reason they nickname him "The Glue".

[@HitlerGaymes123]

Yes, he is. The label want Linkin Park to be a mediocre pop rock band and aways try to remove Mike.

[@C.A._Old]

Masterpiece demo's!

[@akiller28]

You can see how much Chester’s voice adds to the emotion and flow of the track.

[@BooBerry7124]

Yeah the demos are amazing, but Chester adds soo much.

LYRICS Back, before I said goodbye Just as the first day turned to night Just as the concrete turned to dust and the steel turned into rust All I could think was a new way to dig through the damage Couldn't think of a way to get through this Now, I see you taking advantage and I find another reason to do this I'm digging us a hole to travel through I wanna find a way to rattle you You wanna try to hear the thunder hit? You're gonna have to follow me under it Let go, it's begun Close your eyes, I'm not done Breathe a word and waste your breath and keep it up until there's nothing left Now, that I said goodbye Just as the darkness turned to light Just as the next light turns to day and the world gets underway All I can see is the anticipation Waiting to take this out on the wind and the raindrops And I waited patiently, taking it in Ready for the first of the face-offs I'm digging us a hole to travel through I wanna find a way to rattle you You wanna try to hear the thunder hit? You're gonna have to follow me under it Let go, it's begun Close your eyes, I'm not done Breathe a word and waste your breath and keep it up until there's nothing left

I love going down the rabbit hole of Linkin Park demos. It's so fun going through the bajillion demos that they have!

[@jvaldez5]

I’m so glad Mike is getting his flowers now. He’s the reason I began listening to LP and nu metal in general. I’ll always be grateful to this band for all it has given us.

[@adnankarimsampd3504]

This 20 years old demo is better than today's full fledged songs

I remember that Mike said Faint is by far one of the songs they were about to scrap, till Mike added "Jazz" into or smth, which made it sounded so different.

When I listen to this, I feel like there is something bittersweet about it. Nothing too good, nothing too bad. When I'm in my lows, it reminds me of the good that is ahead of me, and when it's full of joy, I do not have expectations of what is to follow.

I was obsessed with Faint on the Meteora album back in the day. And now, all these years later, I'm obsessed all over again.

[@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py]

If only people could've seen this live. It was 2003 and i saw them live on the Project Revolution Tour in Cincinnati. They played Faint and in the intro, it was this demo's intro. Then. They played the track as it was in the studio. As the breakdown occurs before the outro chorus, they slowed it down and play the actual breakdown of this demo, seamlessly, and Mike spits the first verse of this demo. And, in an instant you hear Chester's growl and flows back into the chorus. As the song beings to conclude they snap back to the closing breakdown of the demo once more all the while Chester's belting out on the top of his lungs "I won't be ignored". It was a sight to see that i wish those who were too young could've experienced. Memories.
