Closure11, I have to say this isn't an "everything to everyone" type of song. I think there are songwriters out there who sing about actual subjects that can't be twisted to mean anything else. This is something close to the band, Dead Poetic, and they're inviting you, the listener, to share in it.
The structure of this song is quite amazing. The first relationship is the singer or "role model" to his fans. Next comes the singer as a child to his mother, and lastly is the singer as a boyfriend to his lover.

That thing is Jesus Christ and the amazing forgiveness he has been shown of these vices.

Here's an idea; Maybe Dead Poetic based it all on Karl Marx's quote that says, "Religion is the opium of the people" and not the other kind of "vices" here on Earth.
