surprised no one has commented, personally one of my favorite songs in the album.
My two cents, in a nutshell...
It starts off speaking about how we all get caught up in worldly trappings..
After that, it's about him aspiring to cut off his worldly trappings and to live a more Godly life in Christ, bearing the cross(I desire the weight)to reach his full potential.
"I will face my grave" Generally, when you're sinning, or caught up in a trapping..not thinking about death, or the consequences; basically running from the grave.. Thus he's saying the opposite here.
"I desire remorse, I desire release" Seems to be about regretting that sin/trapping, and seeking release via overcoming it or death...or perhaps "release" is death with the positive outlook of being united with Christ. I'd prefer the latter IMO.
Herp derp seems I temporarily forgot what nutshell means.
