#BurnItDown Menuju #LivingThings

Disaat kakak-kakak kelas deg-degan menghadapi Ujian Nasional, saya sendiri deg-degan menunggu lead single dari album studio kelima Linkin Park yang berjudul Burn It Down. Sebenarnya, berita tentang single tersebut sudah muncul beberapa minggu lalu. Tapi, Linkin Park punya cara tersendiri untuk membuat para penggemarnya yang biasa disebut Linkin Park Underground (LPU) makin penasaran.

Melalui situs resminya, Linkin Park membagikan 16 pasang puzzle yang nantinya kalau disusun akan menjadi seperti gambar dibawah ini :

Gambar tersebut, menurut saya sih Chester Bennington (vocalist LP), dan dibawah ini videonya.

Berikut ini adalah lirik dari Burn It Down :

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 this 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 caught 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

Setali tiga uang dengan rilis resmi Burn It Down, Linkin Park juga memberikan tanggal rilis album terbaru mereka yang berjudul Living Things pada tanggal 26 Juni 2012 mendatang.
