I agree with paigepeach's interpretation and a few others. It's about modern life and the pressures of every day. "Let me out" could refer to the way people are always complaining "I can't stand this routine corporate lemming life", etc.
the song really speaks to me.
I reaaally love this part and I'm going through some stuff that relates to this:
Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care
For the people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
I think it means that when you love someone, you have to be there for them. Love dares you to be there for a person whose going insane, whose "on the edge of the night". A person who might need you. And the second part I think means that when you love someone and they love you, you have to care for yourself. You can't be selfish and for example want to kill yourself (cause you're under pressure or something) you have to live for that other person and by doing so you have to take care of yourself.
Well that's my take on it. Beautiful song and so very deep.
