I think this song can just speak for itself. It's from the perspective of a bomber pilot, bombing buildings full of "insurgents/terrorists/bad guys". But how many innocents were in the building? This is a song about the conscience of someone sent to kill for our clearly not sympathetic or sober minded leaders. Interestingly enough, even though Kensrue is Christian, he is pointing out, in the chaplain bit, how Christian conservatives often justify and defend killing and war. This song also outlines how impersonal and dehumanizing killing our woefully outgunned opponents with a bomb from the sky can be.

@Fr1dge Dustin has clearly lost his faith, hence the album name

@leviticus1 I'm not entirely sure how you reached that conclusion based on either this song or the album name

@Fr1dge Just the whole album in general. A lot of their old stuff is inspired but this is different on their part. He's just so sick of it
