Lyric discussion by Trent Reznor 

Another DM song about faithfulness to God versus faithfulness to humans. Those who control our world have different sets of values than what God sets forth for us. It's about only fearing and apologizing to God, because He's the only one we will answer to that really matters. And it's a good example of spitting in the face of your enemy by not giving him what he wants, which in this case is repentance for commiting a "crime of man". Why repent for something those who despise God call a crime, when you know that what you did wasn't a crime to God?
