Music video
The Craigslist ad for extras stated that it is a "highly stylized concept" that requires at least 300 extras. As of 2021, the music video has not been released yet due to copyright issues in regards to a similar, previously released clip from a European group. However, the music video was included on the DVD of the fall Armistice tour, filmed at Gurgaon, Haryana, India. A leaked version of the clip can be found here.
Awards
The song won a 2005 GMA Dove Award for Modern Rock Recorded Song of the Year.
