"Faint" lyrics
"Faint"
[Mike Shinoda:]
I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can't help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got
[Chester Bennington:]
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
[Mike Shinoda:]
I am a little bit insecure, a little unconfident
'Cause you don't understand I do what I can but sometimes I don't make sense
I am what you never wanna say, but I've never had a doubt
It's like no matter what I do I can't convince you for once just to hear me out
So I let go watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I've got
[Chester Bennington:]
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
I can't feel
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

The melody for this song evolved from a scratch guitar track which guitarist Brad Delson recorded in the studio bus. The tempo of the track was about 70 beats per minute (BPM). When Mike Shinoda heard it he decided to increase the tempo to 135 BPM, and that version was chosen by them as being more fun.
The version of this song was featured on the mashup EP with
Jay-Z "Collision Course" where it was mashed up with lyrics of the Jay-Z's song
"Jigga What".
The
music video for this song was shot in Los Angeles with the members of the fan club LP Underground in front of the band. Almost the entire video is shot from behind the band making them appear as silhouettes.
A demo for this song is included on the "Underground 9.0" Fan Club release. Mike Shinoda raps different lyrics with Chester Bennington having only some backing vocals.
