I know that Arrah and the Ferns is a Christian band, so I'm thinking this song may be about someone singing to a friend or parent who refuses to accept Jesus? Like, they tell them that there's a better place in heaven than the earthly houses their friends and parents build.
BUT it could also be about suicide. The first half of the song until "For you to find in New Orleans" is the person who is giving up and looking to kill him/herself. The second half until the end is the friend or close one being left behind.

Or this is how I see it.
Read somewhere that this is indeed about the frustration with someone who's suicidal.
