In an interview the lead singer of Project 86 explained the meaning of this song. Everyone has a hole in their heart that they must fill, Christian fill it with God and Jesus, but when people don't believe in Christ then they are left empty. When empty they desire to look for what can fill ("Deep in the recess of every man is a thief, a robber, a criminal") the hole in their heart and thus greed and lust.
