I have a different opinion I think hes talking about how we sometimes have to put on a fake smile to be accepted into society and that no one shows their true selves. It also seems as if hes talking about how he was hoping it would be different once he made it as a musician but its the same. I think the church part is about how religion takes every dream and desire you have and wipes them clean and instills you with their religion so you become like every religious person that all have the same dream of worshiping God.
