K this is just a shot in the dark and I havent fully developed this idea yet but here it is--------- This song repressents the temptations of sin and the feeling of being able to rationalize sin....The lines---"I don't want to get caught. We'll say, we'll say we're innocent. And there is enough to prove we're not. They will believe anything."---and---"You'll see, we'll get away with this." represents the feeling that you will be able pretend that what you are about to do (some kind of sin...or sexual sin, im not quite sure) will be ok , it wont effect your life (causing guilt) and that you will be abe to disguise it and keep it hidden. ----In one line it says --"I'm packing all my clothes and never going to go home again."--- this line is showing the feeling that you can just escape into some kind of sin and live in without having to turn back, then in another line it says---"So remember this. Your hands are lies. It's too late for riffs. We'll go home and close the door"--- this last line talks about going home even thought the song was saying that they would never go home. Your hands are lies is saying that your living lies and you know it but instead you hide under your covers. After the singer realizes that he has sinned and that he cant do anything about it---"then pull the sheets up to our heads and sleep. And there isn't a thing that they can do."--- hey repeats the chorus (repeating the sin)------------ This song is showing that we as humans are stuck in a continous rut of sin that we ourselves cannot get out of and that we need help from someone else or we will continue to live our lives like this.
