Transcribing all the lyrics up by ear I figure this is actually a more hopeful song on that album.
They use Evil Kinievel as a metaphor for taking risks. And that through taking risks, you can achieve some of the best feelings. Like when he sings, "It didn't take much living to see that I'm only free when I'm flying."
And the outro is great because it's like saying, I'm not afraid to go out and hurt myself, because I know that in doing that something good is bound to happen.
