I understand that it has personal meaning to the band members, but I believe the overall message GD was trying to send was how amazing experiencing life is, and how small of an opportunity it is - take risk, and enjoy it. Don't live a sheltered life only to die safely.
Then there's another part about embracing the people you get to meet and cherish the love you share.
The ending resonates inside your mind...
"Believe if you need it, if you don't just pass it on {...] Believe it if you need it, or leave it if you dare..."
And the last lines "Such a long long time to be gone, and a short time to be there," seem rather obvious; you're only here for a very short amount of time, and you're gone forever (think of all the years and lives that have preceded your birth, think of all the years and lives that will succeed your death).

All in all, just another amazing tune from GD.
