"I know from past experience He never takes it easy on his readers" refers to God. and to "become a foreign substance lying in your familiar bed" is a reference to the was God would play up sins of the flesh. Kevin Barnes has been described as "the polite anti-christ". Given the sexual imagery throughout the album, this is clearly Barnes rejecting the rejection of God.
Overall I would say the song is about rejection and the unfavorable characterization of the girl and his situation of being potentially hers but then suddenly cut off clearly shows that, especially followed by the next stanzas.
I absolutely love this song, the cut from Beware our Nubile Miscreated into this one is incredible. I also really, REALLY like this album.
