I feel as though this song is about how we can keep what we think or believe entirely to ourselves and because of that there is a certain perception of thoughts and ideals which have become such a norm we simply accept them and TWIST these beliefs in such a way that we forcibly conform them to our own. Hence the author's fear of disappearing. Despite this, there is someone or something wholly spiritual though not religious in nature which compels him to abandon the conformity and accept his own ideas and beliefs and give them wings. I personally believe that every reference made to "you" is actually the singer personifying his dreams. Do that and most of the song suddenly makes far more sense. The chorus really demonstrates this as dreams can lift ones spirit and one can also take this inspiration from a dream and make it their own.
(And to anyone who has seen the music video, it is abundantly clear that this isn't a "God song" since there is a very provocative move the lead vocalist makes on the female parole officer. Pretty sure anyone under a Christian label would NOT be able to have that scene in a music vid.)
