The video suggests it's about a relationship. But the people talking back to him in the video are random and their faces look cold and "callous" (as the lyrics suggest). I think it's about a singer who feels like he's loosing his sanity through the "shadows in his mind", "voices in his head" and if any of them are Gods. He hasn't heard from God and his life has grown "callous" and lifeless ("let me feel one more time what it feels like to feel alive"). He projects these feelings on the random people he sees throughout the day (in the video). Sadly he thinks God is growing tired of him "waiting for the scraps to fall off the table to the ground" and then concludes he "sits outside heaven's door".
