I think the song is about how people only have themselves to blame for their sins. "I am my own disease" is a perfect example of that. The song also explains how we should be true to God and carry out his will to the end (We will fall to ruin - end of the race). They beg for God's light to be shed on them.
But the main theme I think is how the only person the singer is blaming is himself: "I am my own disease", "Messenger of my disgrace", and "[Obsession to] Destroy everything [God] creates". These are things we all struggle with. I know I struggle with controlling my urge to sin.
I looked, and there before me was a pale horse, Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.
