I think this song was supposed to make you feel BETTER - all this misery and pain is not everything you're getting from this life-death thing, there's something better after death, it's not the end.
And it definitly isn't a message to commit siucide (because there are better things after life), 'cause to gain that after life, you have to endure all good and bad things in this one - he mentiones "bright light of salvation"...
