    linkinpark.com/message has been updated again, it appears to be lyrics / poetry with missing letters. With the letters included, The poem reads:

    God bless us everyone
    We're a broken people living under a loaded gun
    And it can't be fought
    And it can't be outdone
    It can't be outmatched
    It can't be outrun
    No

    And when I close my eyes tonight
    To symphonies of blinding light
    (God bless us everyone/We're a broken
    people living under a loaded gun)
    Oh/Like memories in cold decay
    Transmissions echoing away
    Far from the world of you and I
    Where oceans bleed into the sky

    The missing letters in order spell: T H E C A T A L Y S T

    UPDATE: Message 2 Solved: Mike updated his blog confirming "The Catalyst" as the answer.

    "Easy one…yes, “The Catalyst” is correct..."

    What does this mean? Are these lyrics from the new album? Is The Catalyst the name of a track from the new album? Join the discussion in our comments section!

    Are these song lyrics?

    I can make the word CATALYST out of the missing letters but there are some missing. I think that's what the key is, just re-arranging the letters missing.

    No it's outdone on the first part then outrun. It's definitely lyrics. the "/" is an indicator...it's how Mike always writes lyrics. Plus there's that parentheses

    EDIT: just incase someone wanted to know what a catalyst is..here it is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalyst

    Wait. What if it is supposed to be 'Under Loaded Gun(S)'?
    That makes it The Catalyst(S), and the lyrics in the song are plural.

    I'm liking this, if these are lyrics from the album... and I could see where these could be lyrics from a song called "The Catalyst"

    I'm starting to wonder something...Is the band slowly but surely revealing the track titles that will be on the album? 1000 Suns...The Catalyst...Those could easily be track titles. Obviously it's not confirmed we've solved this yet but it's just a theory...

    Either way we seem to be left with at least one spare letter, assuming there are letters to add there. Unless one is singular and one is plural.

    They are pretty cool lyrics. I can certainly imagine Mike rapping the first part and the second part being the chorus sung by Chester.
