I think the song's about how religion promises love, comfort and all these answers to questions about death and what happens next and the like, but that in the end we don't actually need religion in the first place to feel those things, if that makes sense. In the song, the person is completely happy with not having the answers other than what he's being told, and that he never needed a higher power or faith in order to feel things such as love and warmth from his parents, or rules to tell him what he should and shouldn't do because he already knows that by himself.

So yeah, it's about how people often hold religion as the only way to live in this world, when everything it promises can be gained just fine without it. And the song is pretty kick-ass.

Very, very interesting! i really can see this that way, but i have a strong gut feeling when i first heard this song. The title makes it seem like a song easily belonging on Black. but the inherit goodness of the song and the person in it puts up a very important wall - White is not religion, it is not a strong spiritual influence. Its a human creation and as black as life can be, life can be white as well. With an inherit moral compass and a love for family and friends you can lead a loving life...
