Aria Obscura

To me the song is about the contradiction between religious people and religion itself. Most belief systems or religions on the surface, are about peace, love, and understanding. However, the members always seem to forget those tenets and believe their religion or belief should be wielded as a weapon to change how other people think and behave. For example "it takes knees on the ground, it takes heads looking down - AT ANYONE BUT YOURSELF"

It's easy to pray for other people that are not behaving in a way you want them to but it takes real work to look at yourself honestly and make the changes needed to be the best person you can be.

It's easy to look at the world and say "This is why everything sucks" even though you haven't made an ounce of effort to make it a better place.

Corey and Norma Jean as a band acknowledge "I'm not perfect" but you don't have to be perfect in your faith to be self-aware enough to know you need to do better before you can criticize anyone else for their behaviors and beliefs. We're all on our own journey and we just need to lift each other up not tear each other down.

This seems to be about how it takes more than just throwing words together to construct a great song, at least that's the heart of the lyrics here. That being said, I feel on a larger scale there are more layers to this track, in that I think the broader meaning is in a world where there's so much cancel culture and everyone's looking for us all to think the same & feel the same about on issues, sometimes beings one's self and not caring is the way to be right, because it's way more authentic and it comes from the heart that way, and is therefore slated way more in truth.
