But, I can't help but wonder this..
the song kinda sounds like it's about suicide or a person who wants to attempt suicide.
Just look at the lyrics people!
I suppose being raised in church kinda made me read it different from the get-go, but after reading your comment, I can see how you think that. While songs are definitely for the individual to interpret and you're of course more than welcome to draw whatever conclusions you wish, it is so much more than a person wishing to end his or her own life. When she says she's letting go of herself and her dreams and whatnot, I am fairly certain she's saying she's letting go of everything she had planned for herself... Everything that she ever built for...

Everything that she ever built for herself that was of the world... God has so much in store for us if we follow Him and trust in Him... Whatever He has in mind for us is infinitely better than any plan we could ever contrive for ourselves... Letting go is a good thing because when you let go, you let God, and when you let God, amazing things happen =]
It's a nice up-beat song.
