Theme
A very short track that acts as an instrumental prelude to 'Killing Time.' The lyrics are a dry, clinical reading about the nature of **psychopathy**, highlighting the genetic and environmental components of the disorder. This technical introduction sets up the deep dive into the mind of a manipulator in the next song.
Lyrics
**Psychopathy**, like many **psychiatric disorders and syndromes**
Has **environmental**, as well as moderately **strong genetic components**
**Findings indicate there are genetic influences**
Accounting for all of the **psychopathic dimensions**
While **environmental factors** appear related to the disorder
The **reciprocal nature between factors and expression**
Of **psychopathic traits** is an important goal for **future research**
