The chorus is definitely, "no one saved me, so i'll save...". This verse is preceded by "..now it has to end," so basically he saying that his relationship with God has to end - God didn't save him, so he is taking matters into his owns hands, choosing not to live in a jar - an altered state of reality - but he doesn't now where to go from here. And like SLT said earlier, it appears that God is becoming less important in a world where man is making more advances on his own, hence the electic kite reference.
As for the rooster crowed twice and your kissed me goodnight, I think the narrator is essentially Peter from the Bible. Jesus said Peter would disown him three times before the rooster crowed twice. So the narrator is kissing God goodnight - abandoning him or disowning him - just like Peter.
All in all, the jar is just an metaphor for the fake world that the narrator believes Christianity/Religion can create for believers - hence the stones blocking all of our sense (sight, hearing, taste) from what really is.
I read through all of the actual descriptions of the meanings and couldnt find one that really said what I thought the song was about until I reached the last one...this one! This is spot on!
If you REALLY listen to the last 2 albums Brand New has written you will find that Jesse has clearly lost his faith.
Nice job!
