This is also about the crucifixion of Jesus.

"This tourniquet, these blessed hands around my head" It's about the crown o thorns that Jesus wore.

"Two broken hands lift seven wounds and fight to stand To keep the lungs from caving"

Isn't this one obvious? It's Jesus' wounds from the crucifixion. I believe the lungs caving in when you are crucified.
