Serial Code Lyrics

I begin this with a short tale of a friend of mine. When we were discussing the best super powers (yes, we're adults, amazingly enough), he said that his would be the ability to look at someone and have them be able to see themselves as he saw them.

To me, this song seems the same way. He wants the person to see what a worthless person they've become through their acts and deeds. He then petitions "Father", which could be God, a Priest, or his Father (remember, in older times priests could just as much be warriors/killers in the name of good).

He basically wishes this person to hell to learn the error of his ways. A very short, powerful song.
