Hey guys, looking at a small piece of the lyric sheet that was shown and listening to some of the footage of Lost being recorded, I think I had pieced together the entire TTTAMP Demo Lyrics.

 

[Verse 1: Chester & Mike]

Just a scar somewhere down inside of me
Something I can not repair
Even though it will always be
I pretend it isn't there 
[This is how I feel]
I'm trapped in yesterday 
[Just a memory]
Where the pain is all I know 
[This is all I know]
And I'll never break away 
[Can't break free]
'Cause when I'm alone


[Chorus: Chester & Mike]

Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear

[Thoughts like these return to me]
Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
[Memories trapped inside of me]
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear


[Verse 2: Chester & Mike]

But I'm tired, I will always be afraid
Of the damage I've received
Broken promises they made
And how blindly I believed 
[This is all I know]
I will never break away 
[Can't break free]
'Cause when I'm alone


[Chorus: Chester & Mike]

Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear

[Thoughts like these return to me]
Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
[Memories trapped inside of me]
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear


[Bridge: Chester]

Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear
Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear

Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
[Living with the enemy!]
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear
[Memories that disappear!]
Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear
[Thoughts that take away my pride!]


[Chorus: Chester & Mike]

Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear

[Thoughts like these return to me]
Thoughts that take away my pride
Trapped in places deep inside
[Memories trapped inside of me]
Memories I've come to fear
And I can't make them disappear

Wasn't the TTAMP part supposed to be a bridge? Might be just me but it clearly doesn't work as a chorus

The lyric sheet shows it as the chorus so I’m just going with that. The bridge/ending part would be the “Living with the enemy, memories that disappear” part

It was originally a chorus. After they decided to rework the chorus they tried it as a bridge and then ended up reworking that as well into the final version we have.

“TTTAMP” was never a chorus. It was always the bridge. The clip in Making of Meteora and the WIP DVD is over the bridge, we now know because of the arrangement of Lost.


The old/demo chorus if there was one at all possibly started with “Memories trapped inside of me”. The lyric sheet tells us that those lyrics were like in-between lines. But the way its sung in the WIP DVD snippet is as if it’s a chorus.

I am now completely removed from the context of me making that post, but if I remember correctly, that information came from something Mike said around the time Lost was released. I could be misremembering though.

I think I did hear someone else somewhere say they thought it was a demo chorus. It got confused with it I think because the 2nd half of the bridge is certainly instrumentally confusable with the chorus if taken in from only a small snippet.
