I'm still pretty sure this is about Prophecy. I'm not sure why someone would be so adamant about the meaning of this song being purely about losing a loved one. Going by the common theme of the Misfits, it is safe to assume it is about a movie, and the lyrics seem like they could easily apply to Prophecy (maybe 2 as well, like mentioned previously). That being said, the great thing about fiction and art (poems, songs, literature, movies, etc) is that it can mean different things to different people. If it means something to you, and you like that reading of said work, then regardless of whether it was what the artist intended, it is still a meaning. There is vast amounts of theory based on this subject... feel free to check it out. Basically what I'm saying here is if you like it being about a lost love, or religion in general, or the bible, or whatever, then preserve that meaning as what it means to you. Don't let anyone correct you.
All that aside, I'm still fairly certain it is about Prophecy... if not, something very similar. Most of the interpretation that comes previous here is reading in. The metaphors do not define themselves, really, it is just an application of what an individual wants it to mean.
