Was Adam or John's father some sort of clergy? I have tried to find out info about there parents but its HARD to do. I know they are from religious families but it seems to me this song is about someone important in their life that harped on religion while the author was growing up but never "practiced what they preached". It has the feeling, to me, like he is saying "Alright I am a fully grown adult at this point I deserve to get some closure on this". Maybe whichever one penned most of the lyrics dealt with some physical abuse or maybe its someone they know and are close with that behaves in this way toward there own children. Just my take but I thought maybe this would help get the convo going on this song because its a really imporant piece from this album. I absolutely think this song being about Chauntelle ( married to someone else with a child now lol ) or previous band mates is pretty silly. And Rubano and Fazzi didn't leave on horrible terms or anything. Nothing like John or Fred.
Yeah it'd be silly for it to be about Chauntelle except that the two events were only half a year apart... but anyway I meant to mention that throughout the previous album Adam self-admittedly wrote a lot of the songs towards that event.
'You quote the good book
when its convenient
but you dont have the sense
no you dont have the sense
to tie your tangled toungue
instead you slash it through the mud' is from everything must go which refers to her very religious background. I'm not saying he still wants to be with her (hence the title this is all now) it's kind...

I'm not saying he still wants to be with her (hence the title this is all now) it's kind of just a final attempt at understanding an event that is still obviously clear to him (sits a broken man that needs to understand). Once and for all he just wants the truth.

Well if you read the Alt press article, there was a lot of angst towards Fazzi and Rubano, so it wouldn't be a silly though at all.
