This song could also be about a person who cannot pass on after his death. Who is trapped to journey the EArth for all eternity as only a shade of a man. And his Earth is a dead city (literal translation of necropolis) He became that way in the shadow of the tree he was buried under. Because of his torture of being a shade of a man he begins to lose faith and trust in God/other deity. However, he does ask for God to destroy our race, because of his chance to reflect on who we really are, and he sees up as a bunch of faceless liars. And after the apocalypse he will still be just a corpse buried in the ground.
So I think Im either complete spot on with that, OR way off.
