AFI – Narrative of Soul Against Soul Lyrics 15 years ago
Hey I think this song is about God.

To the wounded:

This means the atheists and agnostics.

I have seen the self image
they've forced you to reduce to shattered glass,
with the only remaining value lying in it's jagged edges.

Talks about extremists.

But the few who warrant waking for await their recognition.
No fear of death but with fear of life,
your weakness kills everyone.
So live.

Heaven/Hell.

Angels for everyone.
For no lack of searching I can't seem to find one.

Is there a god?

Angels in everyone.
What of all their promises?
Can't seem to find much more than lies.
Angels in anyone.

The bible and stuff says that god will protect you, but these lines doubt that.

A permanent solution to a temporary problem.

This talks about turning to god for help - you show that you have put your faith in the lord (a permanent solution) but the problem is temporary.

Before I'd lay me down to rest,
I'd throw away everything to live.

This, I think, is god speaking. Before you lay god down to rest (ie forget about him) he can prove that he has a worth.

So basically this is in my opinion a religious song. No I'm not a priest/jesuit/imam/rabbi/guru/etc.
