An interpretation of the lyrics:
A boy helps an old man who has accidentally locked himself out of his house. The boy discovers the old man's collection of empty jars inside the house and decides to make jam to fill them. The man learns from the boy that human weakness is exciting and intimate. And actually, the boy learns this too.
I wanted an excuse to do something big, so I told myself I was going to do an opera.
Human error is considered error because it's less common, or definable.
If science is about measuring and categorizing things, human error breaks away from science by being sloppy and unquantifiable, or at least unpredictably quantifiable. Compassion allows human "error" to be itself.
