This song is about the narrator considering his own death, and how he has never really done anything in his life to create any consequences if he died.
He never married, thus "no widows", never had a child. He goes on to state that he has no belief in a heaven or a hell, so he will basically just vanish from the Earth without an impact.
Also, in the last part, (say the wings won't break) he is essentially saying that he does not want to die now because (after this reflection) he realizes he has contributed nothing to the world.
