I think this song is a reference to absurdist philosophy. Absurdism holds that life is fundamentally meaningless, and that our options are suicide, religious belief, or acceptance of the absurd. The philosopher Albert Camus compared the second option, religion, to philosophical suicide. The song seems to acknowledge that Camus was right, but that the artist is willing to embrace religion (lines 1 and 2) even though it blinds you and creates all kinds of guilt and other problems ("hell inside of my head") in addition to giving you hope and meaning ("a taste of heaven").
