I think that this song is about how here on earth, we're not going to satisfied with the state of everything as is and that we can't make it on our own strength.
The song opens with the speaker coming to God, and then says "Everyone around here comes here feelin'/Fed up with the way their wounds are healin'". the song goes on to say, "Take me to a place where doors are open/A lovely little place where no one's broken", which obviously refers to heaven. He asks God to take him out of his hell into something worth living for.
The chorus just reflects asking God for strength to keep going and to get out of their "personal" hell or prison. "Bring Me to life/Breathe air into me". The aggressive repetition of the "Bring me to life" line shows the desperation of the speaker wanting to get out that hell/prison.
The second verse opens with the now revived speaker going to do what he set out to do. However, a personal storm/trial is attacking and trying to bring down the speaker, but he obviously stands his ground and continues on. The speaker thanks God in the bridge for his strength "You helped me figure out/That I could come to life and turn this thing around", but then comes the devil with an attack against him. He rebukes Satan over and over again, with the vocals growing more and more aggressive as he repeats the stanza.
The song then ends with the battle won and overcome.
