This song was inspired after reading "Rashomon" from Ryunosuke Akutagawa, this tale got me thinking about how a turn of events or a change in your life can make you do things that you thought were unacceptable and now the become the next most logical step to take, like murderer or stealing, once inconsiderable now necessary.
I was thinking about a catholic confession when I wrote the lyrics, that explains the "Father can you forgive me" stuff, but it can be interpreted on many ways, Julian for example thinks that a justified crime happens when a kid steals some bread just because he is hungry.
Past Saturday I was watching some news and a thief said that he did what he did because the situation was hard now days, definitely to justify a crime it all depends on the context, we can name some political crimes, or some state politics but its barely Monday, so why start the week whit the wrong foot.
