As for the Damnation Game! I don't think it has anything to do with this book in general! Their has been many time the word 'Damnation' has been used, my most memorable would be the level in Halo: Combat Evolved called 'Damnation' The Dictionary's definition, and the one that seems most suitable based on Symphony X's style is the following:
---
Damnation
n 1: the act of damning 2: the state of being condemned to eternal punishment in Hell [syn: eternal damnation]
Damnation
in Rom. 13:2, means "condemnation," which comes on those who withstand God's
ordinance of magistracy. This sentence of condemnation comes not from the
magistrate, but from God, whose authority is thus resisted. In 1 Cor. 11:29
(R.V., "judgment") this word means condemnation, in the sense of exposure to
severe temporal judgements from God, as the following verse explains. In Rom.
14:23 the word "damned" means "condemned" by one's own conscience, as well as
by the Word of God. The apostle shows here that many things which are lawful
are not expedient; and that in using our Christian liberty the question should
not simply be, Is this course I follow lawful? but also, Can I follow it
without doing injury to the spiritual interests of a brother in Christ? He that
"doubteth", i.e., is not clear in his conscience as to "meats", will violate his
conscience "if he eat," and in eating is condemned; and thus one ought not so to
use his liberty as to lead one who is "weak" to bring upon himself this
condemnation.

As for the lyrics of the song, hear they are-everything might not be perfect but meh!
-DAMNATION GAME-
Forever cursed by this game, he who plays with sin
Incantations summoned up our creations
We're players cast in this tale, believe it
stranger than fiction
This justice thunders our condemnation
Falling into innocence by a shadow's kiss
He speaks what mortals dare to say, will he betray?
If you dare play the game - your descent preordained
from their fiery thrones screaming,
cursing your name
On the terror it breeds - breathing fire and gree
watch him jest as you bleed...
Screaming enter the Damnation Game
We can not keep our heads clear,
or our tongues from evil
by this sword, certain death at our own hands
To have no wants is divine - untrue!
platinum waves tainted gold, we can only watch from
the shores
Falling into innocence by a shadow's kiss
He speaks what mortals dare to say, will he betray?
If you dare play the game - your descent preordained
from their fiery thrones screaming,
cursing your name
On the terror it breeds - breathing fire and gree
watch him jest as you bleed...
Screaming enter the Damnation Game
[Solo]
If you dare play the game -
your descent preordained
from their fiery thrones screaming,
cursing your name
On the terror it breeds - breating fire and greed
watch him laugh as you bledd...
Screaming enter the Damnation Game
[Solo]
If you dare play the game - your descent preordained
from their fiery thrones screaming,
cursing your name
On the terror it breeds - breathing fire and gree
watch him jest as you bleed...
Screaming enter the Damnation Game
....
