On August 24th 2008, this song was played at the soundcheck at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. It is nicknamed 'Wake Me (Before They Come)' because of the use of that phrase as a chorus, but the actual title is unknown. Only one person is known to have taped the soundcheck, and snippets of their recording have gradually been posted online:
drowning
this one
it's drowning
this one
drowning
this one
it's drowning
in the ... passes by
'cause you're having a breakdown
[drums]
splinters on the log
hovering birds of prey
your god
wake Me
from ...
just wake me
c'mon c'mon
wake me
before
just Wake me
splinters on the road
hovering birds of prey
you're so high upon yourself
and you blow it all away
before you do
wake me
before you do
wake me
before you do
wake me
before you do
laying down the spot
'cause you're having a breakdown
you got small holes in your eyes
hovering birds of prey
before they come
wake me
before they come
wake me
before they come
wake me
before they come
[guitar + drums]
Ohhhh ohhh ohhh
wake me
before they come
x4
[guitar + band outro]
before they come
wake me
before they come
On August 21st 2009, in a fan interview in Austria, Colin was played the above snippet and he mentioned it was one of his favourites of the new songs. Unfortunately he didn't remember the title of the song, but mentioned it was something like "rooftops"...
