David Bazan – When We Fell Lyrics 11 years ago
This song is pretty straightforward.

It blames evangelical Christians (and possibly god himself) for pushing people away from Christianity through Scare tactics(threat of hell) and un-achievable rules (a riddle that you knew they would fail).

He also hopes that his mother understands his decisions.
and he hopes that she come to the same conclusion.

if you bully her like you done me with fear of damnation
Then I hope she can see you
for what you are

David Bazan – Harmless Sparks Lyrics 11 years ago
Referring to the priests breaking their vow of chastity and burning in Hell as a consequence.

He's suggesting that the priests, instead of unnaturally withholding sexual urges to the point of raping young boys, should have experimented sexually with the nuns.

This way they would not cause others to question their beliefs, and consequently lead millions astray.
