I would say it's religious all the way through.
"Don't act so innocent
I've seen you pound your fist into the earth
And I've read your book
It seems that you could use another fool
Well I'm cruel
And I look right through
You must have more important things to do
So if you need a murderer
Someone to do your dirty work"
God does pretty awful things in the old testament, "Don't act so innocent." "I've read your book," the Bible. "You have more important things to do," self explanatory. This looks almost like someone is so bad God even would want to kill them, and the singer is wishing he could, and wants to justify it.

This song made me think of Judas. Needing someone to do God's dirty work. Judas betraying Jesus so that he could save mankind.

So much intense feeling in this song.
