Devil Dressed in Blue

I think that the song is about religion. especially in the first stanza where he says "Well I believe the closing scene Is being told so close to me I'm having trouble getting sleep" he's talking about the after-life being the 'closing scene' and he's scared because he doesn't know if he'll go to heaven or hell and cannot sleep, "the closing scene.....i'm having trouble getting sleep." the fourth stanza aids to the religious aspect of the song and how he's scared of his location in the after-life and begs the angle to 'wrestle' him to show him he's doomed for hell, "crack my sides to let me see," "that if the end will set me free" (meaning there is an after-life) "they're sending me down below" (hell) and then he brings about the aspect of jesus giving his life to forgive your sins and the prosses he went through to do that, carrying the cross on his back. "I never knew you actually cared i'm such a simple fool" talking about not realizing the love it took jesus to sacrifice himself for the narrirator.

this is my interpretation and i would love for others to expand upon this or even tell me i'm completely wrong.
