It is related to the song 'Daddy'. Jonathan has said that Mr. Rogers told him that he should be kind to his neighbors, that they were all good people...then Jonathan got sexually abused by one of his neighbors. The song "Daddy" tells about the actual abuser, "Mr. Rogers" talks about the possible influence that caused him to be extra naive to strangers as a child ("But you told me that everybody was my neighbor") thus made it easier for him and maybe others wide-eyed child trust to be taken advantage of by sick perverts.
But while blaming both attacker and influence, he still also blames himself for falling into trust of both, like if he wasn't so 'dumb', it never would have happened, as most who were abused think. ("Looking back...dumb"/"Now, his innocence gone...dumb")
