I like this song. It's about breaking free of the stranglehold of organized religions and thinking for yourself. I love how he ends it with just "But it doesn't have to be this way" as if he's telling you to go out and find your own answers, don't feel obligated to stay and follow the herd.
I admire that Howerdel is pretty direct with his message (as opposed to MJK w/ APC) and you can always understand ever word he's singing. I didn't even need to read the lyrics for this album- not many modern bands can claim that.
