Lyric discussion by gwilikers6 

Cover art for Lord Kill The Pain lyrics by Red House Painters

I don't think it's a "piss take," I just think hyperbole/exaggeration/overreaction/whatever. I think it just uses that to emphasize on the themes of isolation and not always being able to relate well with the ones closest to you. The narrator wants a fresh start.

My Interpretation

Well, there's something about his voice and the way he pus songs together that makes him seem deadly serious, but I find it very hard to take these lyrics at all seriously.
