I think this song really is opened to interpretation. My interpretation ( I do understand the religious and depressed suggestions) is that it is all about being lost as a person. Not knowing who you really are and what you are meant to do with your life.
It's all about experiencing life - and until that is being done you won't feel as if you belong and fulfilled (This is my chance, this my my chance I'll take it now because I can).
"Don't save me", is not a cry for help but a stance against doing it on your own - whatever happens, happens.
"save me" is the realisation that life won't make sense alone. How can you believe, how can you have faith, how can you really feel like you've lived until you've reached out to those around you?
