Lyric discussion by caseylane12 

He doesn't want to kill himself because he is suicidal and has no where else to go, he wants to kill himself to counteract the shooting, in a philosophical way. In his eyes, killing himself would even things out, but he is unsure if that will get him into heaven.

He also realizes his mistake, and it's his way of "repenting" because he feels guilt and doesn't want to go to hell for a simple mistake.

As they say, "an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind"
