I agree with KillerL1ama on the lust part, the lines of "But I did not shed that skin like You said." could very possibly be that she lied to him, and tried to trick him into what she wanted from him, to make herself feel good, feel accepted etc. [seeing that the world is so broken, and people sadly think that sex, lust, porn etc is a way to restore themselves] Then he realize that after all, that isn't really a life he wants, but struggles to get out of it, hence the reason why he point out and say "And to the girls, You're worth more than the cheap words. You see your body as beauty, but your pulse is worth more." suppose he is trying to respect girls with the same breath as what he desires them. i love the ending where he says "Take, my lust, this world's Love. Great Councilor, take what's left. Great Councilor, take what's left of me" in that state of desperation he cries out to God knowing that His grace is enough. there is something beautiful about being broken. |
