Tekst piosenki:
Oh take me higher
All the way to the sun
Down to the wire
Fighting's only begun
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
Run from the fire raining down on you
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
And no way out
I will persevere
I will resist you here
I will interfere
I'm not the only son
My will will be done
A dissent begun
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
Run from the fire raining down on you
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
And no way out
Gonna make it through
I'm gonna make it through
Divide by zero like a wrecking crew
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you oh
And no way out
Oh take me higher
All the way to the sun
I will persevere
I will resist you here
I will interfere
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
Run from the fire raining down on you
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you
And no way out
Gonna make it through
I'm gonna make it through
Divide by zero like a wrecking crew
It's closing in on you
It's closing in on you oh
And no way out

"Dividing By Zero"
Holland: "Dividing By Zero' and "Slim Pickens Does the Right Thing and Rides the Bomb to Hell" both sound like one song, and that was the idea. It was intentional. Those were actually the last two we did for this record. We thought it would be cool to put two short songs together almost as if it were a short punk medley that adds up to one five minute song. That's it musically. Lyrically, it's about vengeance. It's the idea that something is coming back to you. When I read those lyrics, it sounds like a military guy on a bombing mission, someone going after Osama, or someone getting tried for fraud. The idea of vengeance in a pure adulterated way. It's an unapologetic eye for an eye. People tend to temper that, but it's about tapping into what that emotion is.
