Yeah this song seriosly rocks, i think i sorta know what the songs about. 'The Reckoning' is the thing after the resurection of Christ where God will judge every soul and decide whether to send them to hell or let them into heaven sooo......well the chorus is obviously about hell -

a hole where you will always be alone - well its hell isnt it, your gonna be alone forever

a world that doesn't care if you belong - no-one at all gives a damn about you down there

I'll push you off Of a throne that you erected for yourself - could be Satan saying your not gonna be your own boss anymore, your my slave now

OK but i think the actual song is basically saying God tells you all your life that you can come to heaven (Come on now, you know I won't hurt you Come on now, I'm here to protect you Come on now, I'll lead you to shelter ) but even if you do everything right, and make 1 tiny mistake, God will send you down to Hell the worst place imaginable (as described in the chorus). And basically you've dedicated your life to God and now your in hell. God damit that would piss you off a bit
