    NOTES
"The lyrics came very easily. It was a really easy song to do. I had seen a preview of the video game, and I'm not much of a gamer, but that's because I'm pretty old-school about some things. And they were showing me all these graphics and what they can do now is amazing. It just blew me away and motivated me to write, I guess."

    LYRICS (official)
How did I make this choice?
Filling my heart up with rage
No one can hear my voice
The deafening shame

I lay my life on the line
I lost my soul to bloodlines

How can you live this way?
That's a good question
I'm walking between the pain
Without redemption
 
I lay my life on the line
I lost my soul to bloodlines

What is it like to be hated
Inside a world with no control over time?
What is it like to be created
Inside a world where life is a crime?
