  ^this is close to providing the rhythmic guitar noise in this part. 
   palm mute while fret-muting with your other hand near the nut.

Note:  An alternate way of playing this (It's the way I play it, but  
       I've not seen them play this live so I don't know how Billy plays  
       it) is with one guitar as follows:

Lyrics: 
 
Plant (pledged?) your faith 
my heart embraced 
struggle to renew 
 
Blurry mind 
so hypnotized 
fast enough who.. 
 
Wonder...where you are. 
Tristessa 
 
Soul take soul 
as I take eye 
I will wait for you 
 
What you believe 
you'll wish to recieve. 
Who to believe in who? 
You. 
 
Hang on...to your life. 
Tristessa 
 
I love you true 
Surely I knew (do?) 
I love you true 
Surely I knew 
Surely I knew 
Surely I knew 
 
 
Do you ever wake up and find yourself alone? 
Do you ever wake up far from home? 
What you believe 
you'll wish to recieve. 
Who to believe in who? 
Tristessa
