This song is in now way, shape, or form about a child molester.

You cannot think of Charlie as a child, he is a young man coming into his age and sexuality. Charlie is closeted and that's where he is hiding, in the closet. Being good and compliant feels so damn bad, because he is living a lie and suffering in silence about his sexuality.

Charlie begins to experiment with his sexuality and that's why he comes home smelling like shaving cream. Not because a child molester is attacking him.

In the bridge CHARLIE is talking to the LISTENER. There is no imaginary child molester talking to Charlie. Why would the child molester not get sleep at night and need to confess? It's Charlie coming out to the listener.

The priest is mentioned to show the family is very Christian, and of course Charlie would not admit to the priest he is gay because that would just confirm his eternal damnation that he is struggling with inside.

well that shows how much you know... the song is about a child molester... it's about her close friend that was molested along with other children in the neighborhood when he was a child...

the child molester couldn't get sleep and wanted to confess because he was feeling guilty about doing it.

look up your facts man... this song is in no way, shape, or form about someone who is gay. it is about a CHILD MOLESTER...

Check your facts, Dia herself said it was about a young boy being molested by a neighbor and was afraid to tell. The boy was a friend of Dia and the abuser (who had other victims as well) died of old age and no one had ever told on him. And on a side note, It can be very hard for a victim to admit they are being molested. I am mentoring a young boy who was molested by his older brother and he was afraid to tell his mom because it was his brother. He finally told me...
