This could be reference to many things. Especially when the Rev died. With the lines "Tonight we all die young" and "So why'd you close your eyes? Why can't I shut mine?" is meant to be how The Rev died hence 'close your eyes' and 'Why can't I shut mine' may mean that if he sleeps he will dream and things we'll be thought over and memories will play and everything will be a total nightmare. At least if he stays awake he can hold on to the memories and not have to realize reality. Tonight someone died and everyone else lost a part of themselves.
Then he reflects on how he is in a terrible place "Save me, I'm trapped in a vile world. ,Save me, Where the endings are the same as every other, We're only here to die."
He realizes that the world is full of sadness and death and moving on. Where the only constant in life on this world is death. "the ending is the same as every other, We're only here to die"
