I think the "Sin I didn't care for" is quite obviously Kezia admitting her distaste for her work as a prostitute, but still reaping the benefits of such sin.
"And no one ever said I'd have to pull the trigger on her": The person in charge of executing Kezia is beginning to feel remorse for her, and has developed sympathy to her situation, causing his task to become steadily more difficult.
"Pull the screaming trigger and watch your carcass bleed me dry": As was stated before, the people shouting in the background "SHOOT HER", yet the guard is unable to do so. He knows he will feel the rush of overwhelming guilt if he does what he is being told to. The "bleeding dry" is symbolic of his shame and guilt for being in such a scenario.
"I watch a woman that I know My hope and my own future blindfolded": The narrator is hinting that he either understands Kezia's situation quite well and will feel horrible guilt for executing her, or alternatively, they had once been together, and he still has lingering feelings for her.
That's what I took from the song. I'm probably miles off, but tell me what you think.
Absolutely amazing song.
