It's about college, or mainly moving away to college. I think it's kind of a song aimed at a dad who's kid is leaving for college.
"The training spent on all your words
was obvious in all we heard
was repetition."
Kind of like the dad had been practicing what he'd say on the day the kid is leaving, and he just kept repeating himself.
"Representing your best interests
while wishing us the very best
when that is something
that you would never give."
The dad is representing his best interests such as, I think, what he expects from the kid and what he wants him to do, but at the same time wishing him the best, when it is obvious that he doesn't really pray for that.
That's my take on the song. I don't have much else to say besides that.
