While your explanation is pretty funny broken, I have to disagree.
I've not listened to these guys for very long, but I guess that they are a christian band judging by some of their other songs. So...
I think that the first few lines have to do with the end of the world as said in Revelations. I dont know much about it, but it sounds like that's what it is.
and I believe the second stanza to be this:
Not far from here, a place prepared - I guess he means his place in Heaven made for him.
Can't find my way, send up a flare - Now he is asking for the way to get there.
Open the sky - Either referring to when Jesus descends from Heaven, or asking to open the sky so he can see heaven. Based on the first lines meaning the events in Revelations, I'm guessing its my first idea.
Show me the way though twilight - Back to what I said, asking for the way to heaven.
