Lyric discussion by ninthguardian 

Not about war, not suicide specifically either. Klayton said it was a point of coming to terms with his leaving the Christian religion. Something he still struggles with and reflects it in his music. Listen for it. Listen my son =P

HOWEVER I never heard him say the meaning to the title so that is why I am here. I suspect the first born is one of the titles that is in reference to Jesus, but not sure what "last one" means. It could be his thoughts on the end of religions entirely.

As for pretty much every other word in the song it is not hard to see he is simply trying to plea with church and god to be more forthcoming. They tell him to listen, he does. The juggling of trying to believe and those that try to help actually further give credit to doing otherwise ( which may be what having the face down in the dirt and pushing forward means)

An error occured.
