Plot: Chev Chelios survives a fall from the sky, sort of. He's in an unknown location, sedated, while various Chinese are harvesting his organs. His heart is gone, in an ice chest; a temporary in its place. Chev escapes, knowing only the name of the guy with the ice chest. He calls Doc Miles, an unlicensed cardiologist, who tells him there's only an hour's life in the artificial heart: keep it charged. Chev needs to find his own heart and get to Doc for a transplant. He starts his time-limited pursuit of shadowy figures, the ice chest, and his heart aided by Eve, Rei, and Venus - a stripper, a prostitute, and a pal with Tourette's - constantly needing an electric charge to keep going.

The demons try to catch me
They're coming so close to me
All those eyes that are holding me back
I can't talk, I can't shout
All those hands holding me
I'm so cold and you're not here
I go down to the bottom of the abyss
I'm sinking into the darkness
Running at full speed when I fall (4x)
O my god I feel alone
Above my head, a scarlet veil
Turns around my head and rips my veins
Tepid blood flowing on my hands
I slowly strangle her, and see
A red river leaving its stream
Drowning plains and flowing into the sea
I feel like I'm falling free
