At first I thought the fact that Mike used the word "instrumental" in the A Thousand Suns post meant nothing, now I'm not so sure. Maybe it's the name of the album opener, and it samples audio footage of Oppenheimer reciting those quotes.
If we're going in the track-list order, starting with the instrumental makes sense with LP, and now this is the second track.
And I love the lyrics, if that's what they are.
