[[Multitracks]] for this song were released in [http://remix.nin.com raw WAV, GarageBand and Ableton Live formats] via [[remix.nin.com]]. A slowed-down version of the song's drum pattern seems to be used again on "[[Zero-Sum]]". The pattern is also very similar to that of "[[My Violent Heart]]".

According to the lyrics, this song is most likely written from the perspective of the Evangelical Church/Year Zero government, telling that the presence is "God given".
