to me it is clearly about the catholic church. not about jesus. that's the point.
"choices always were a problem for you" - starting his "helping" by making the person feel like they are weak, stupid, in need of someone to control them or they are doomed. instead of how jesus come to us, only in love, not pointing out flaws but all forgiving.
"what you need is someone strong to guide you. like ME." - not jesus
"if you want to get your soul to heaven, trust in ME, don't you judge or question. you are broken now, but faith can heal you. just do everything I tell you too." - I is the key word here. this person is promising to have what is needed to get them into heaven. not Christ. not repentance. only by doing what this person wants them to do.
"deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow" - more belittling and making them person feel lesser.
"what you need is someone strong to guide you. let ME lay MY holy hand upon you." - obviously this religious figure is using their position as a priest to violate, instead of heal or bring people to the Lord. and let me lay my holy hand upon you screams molestation that has happened again and again inside the church, by supposed men of God.
"MY god's will, becomes ME. when he speaks, he speaks through ME." - completely taking over god's will, using that lie to deceive further. taking all the glory from God, giving credit to himself. prideful because of his position of power in the church. not because he is a holy man.
"he has needs. like I do. we both want to rape you." - and now rape is taking place and the rapist is using god to make it look like it's what is supposed to happen. it's what god wants. so it must be right. even though this is all coming from this priest, not God.
"Jesus Christ why don't you come save my life now? open my eyes, blind me with your light now. Jesus Christ why don't you come save my life now? open my eyes, blind me with YOUR lies now." - I think this is coming from the point of the victim. in the act of being raped, they are crying out to Jesus to come save them and show them the REAL truth, because what this person is telling them feels WRONG. when they say open my eyes and blind me with your lies now, I think this line is directed at the rapist/molester. almost as if after crying out to Jesus He did open their eyes and they see the person using God or Christ in the sick and twisted way they really are. they see they've been lied to.
