xtrue4lifex has it right, really - he could honestly be spouting ridiculous nonsense and it would probably be hard to tell the difference. Not that you should really care though...to me, lyrics are the tiniest part of the Converge experience.
I can see how some people might read the lyrics of Jane Doe and think that there is a connecting theme, almost like a concept album or an album about a specific event, but I think it's got more to do with Bannon's personality than it does with an actual concerted effort to write an entire album about one thing or person.
If you look at Bannon's art, for the most part, you'll see exactly what I mean. There are recurring themes, but it's not necessarily planned that way - it's just his personality.
Writing that made me nearly wet myself in anticipation for You Fail Me...just a few more months...
