"My God now I see how I've squandered each and every breathe"
This song seems to be about being a good steward of what God has given you in this life. It is not about oneself, it is about God and your Neighbor (everyone else).
In the end, the voice in this song finds that they have lead a meaningless life. They have no legacy. They have not left anything to those around them. The good times have passed and every selfish thing that had been the sole focus is now undone.
