Hmm I dunno exactly what it means, but it seems like the narrator was talking about or a family member that betrayed the family, possibly burning the house down, explaining the sirens at the beginning as well as the baby bottles burining. It does not seem like the parents are antagonized, as the mother seems to hate the liar. Neither is God shown as a direct enemy, as the father seems to vindicate the liar "with the hand of God." There may be two points of veiw, though I do not see that clearly. The lyrics here seem to deviate from what is heard by me when I play it. This song is good, but horribly unclear in its meaning. Later it seems to call God a liar,(God and maker...) but at the same time its improbable that the father touched God with the "hand of God" and called him a liar
