"'''My Violent Heart'''" is the eighth track and was the first song to leak from the 2007 release ''[[Year Zero]]''.  It begins with looping percussion and soon enough vocals begin. Just before the chorus, a line of synth plays as a climax builds. The chorus contains mechanical and robotic noises.

An amazing discovery was made while analyzing the content of the MP3. In the last few seconds of the song there is an awkward bit of static. Running the audio file through an audio spectrometer, a distinct image was found within the static. It is indeed "[[The Presence]]" from the ''[[Year Zero]]'' concept.

The 'Presence' Reference

An amazing discovery was made while analyzing the content of the MP3. In the last few seconds of the song there is an awkward bit of static. Running the audio file through an audio spectrometer, a distinct image was found within the static. It is indeed "The Presence" from the Year Zero concept.

Viewed through a linear spectrometer.

Lyrics

    You and I, we may look the same
    But we are very far apart
    There's bullet holes where my compassion used to be
    And there is violence in my heart
    Into fire you can send us
    From the fire we return
    You can label us a consequence
    Of how much you have to learn
    
    You can try but you'll never understand
    This is something you will never understand
    Can you hear it now?
    Hear it coming now?
    Can you hear it now?
    
    On hands and knees we crawl
    You cannot stop us all
    Our bones, our skin
    We will not let you in
    
    You have set something in motion
    Much greater than you've ever known
    Standing there in all your grand naïvety
    About to reap what you have sown
    Time will feed upon your weaknesses
    And soon you'll lose the will to care
    When you return to the place that you call home
    We will be there, we will be there
    
    On hands and knees we crawl
    You cannot stop us all
    Our blood will stay
    We will not go away
    
    On hands and knees we crawl
    You cannot stop us all
    Our blood, our grace
    Will never leave this place
