I get a vibe from the whole album that is it very deeply based or inspired by a view on religion.
I feel the viewpoint is that religion, as we know it is on the decline, The fear that religion uses to trap its followers can be overcome, and inoculated against with knowledge.
"Bless this immunity" may be an explanation of how religious leaders are safe from the legal systems that the rest of us must abide.
"Exorcise the spectacle
Exorcise the malady
Exorcise the disparate
Poison for eternity
Purge me and evacuate
The venom and the fear that binds me"
The thing that is being exorcised, is the variety of bullshit that is preached by the religious leaders. (in my opinion)
"Deceiver
Chased away
A long time
Coming"
As we humans are becoming more and more intelligent, we don't believe the lies anymore, so the deceiver can be chased away.
Every line has a representation that I can see relates to the distrust of religion. I'll let you ponder the rest.
I agree with Syndesmotic42.
