I think the song means this:
going your own way from God is getting nothing. has tragedy happend for a reason or a result? Sin has led me to ask this question. If we fallow what we are suppose to do we will be better off. Is what we have been told to follow not a reality and trying to follow this impossible because even our teachers have failed? The enemy has already won and we have already lost if we do not learn from our teachers who have made mistakes; we have lost unless we change our ways.
I Really like what ourmodernred said, It is exactly the way I am feeling.
Something from one of P.O.D.s songs that i think goes with this message "Look to the sky head the warning, the shadow is coming, the shadow is coming."
I think it is time for us to change.
Of corse this would only make sence if you think As I Lay Dying writes from a christian perspective.
