"Dark City" was actually a 90s movie. It's great if you haven't seen it - it very obviously visually inspired movies like "The Matrix".
This song...on a less religious and more human level, I've always seen it as being about the innate darkness of man. The alternating choruses fear the dark and the light in turn - I see this as a comment on how man fears his own ability to harm, but is enthralled by his power.
