In case it's not entirely obvious to somebody, the song is deeply spiritual.
"Will I know it? Will I know it when I see it?"
This is referring to Christ's Second Coming. He is questioning whether he will recognise it when it comes.
"I know that where I am is not who I should be. The Devil takes my hand and says, 'Child, come with me.'
My body shivers and aches, I can't break free. Why do the things I hate come so naturally?"
He's not satisfied with who he is, with the way he so easily gives into the Devil's temptation.
"When we see the light, when we're going home, we'll dance on our graves with our bodies below. We'll sing 'glory' and 'Hallelujah'."
Again, referring to the Second Coming, when we will be resurrected and will sing and dance with joy.
Such an awesome song, one of my favourites by Paper Route.
