I love One Republic. Not only do they have great rythm to their songs, but their lyrics have such deep meaning, that for most of the songs I will probably never understand, as much as I struggle to. That's why I also have great respect for them. I need interpretation for most of their lyrics, but here is what I think about this song:
I think it's about him going away and having to leave his loved one against his will. Hence,"Not far from here You see me crack like a bone, like a bone I'm so breakable". But even though he's leaving, she will wait, and even if he'd "take everything from her" she still wouldn't stop loving him and waiting. And he is ashamed and feels like a prodigal because he is leaving his loved one and doesn't want it himself. He is not asking her to wait, but she still does.
At first I thought this song was boring, but when I looked deeper it almost makes me cry.
I don't know about the Christian part though, as I'm atheist and don't know much about Bible stories.
Looking at the date of the song, I'd say someone was already knocked up. Hey, a few thousand for a kid who needs support for 18 year. Fair trade. The song sounds like a delusion of grandeur. In real life, nobody waits. They may wait around to look and laugh, but they don't wait. They communicate and go out with others just waiting until they find the one. They they look back and laugh again. At least some don't sacrifice their souls and intellect for a tight ass and some high fives by the teenage boys. At least some...

Oops. Never was very good in math. That song date would be prior to the actual knock up...back in the planning stages of taking advantage of the poor, weak, horny sucker whose sperm and nothing more was needed. LOL.
