[edit] Notes

  • The song was performed by the band when they appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on January 19, 2007. The song was played without the 40-second intro from the album version, but featured the instrumental outro, which is cut from the radio edit.
  • The lyrics "And at the gate does Thomas ask to see my hands?" is a biblical allusion to Doubting Thomas, who asked to see Jesus' hands.
