Here's what I think the song means.

Til the road unwinds from the Earth and the world begins in reverse

I think this is referring to when the world ends... Until the end of time...

Feel the peace glowing so bright in my skull as You wrap around blankets of Words Wrap around blankets of Words

Since this song is believed to be about the Freedom Jesus gave us, this part could be about the Word of God saving someone

Bleeding dry the promise of worth Knowing you were meant for this thirst Drink it in slowly while life puts a heart in you Weaving new blankets of words Weaving new blankets of words

I kind of want to relate this story to Lacey. She's told her story several times about how she didn't believe in God at first and how she lived as an Atheist. But she found that she was meant to thirst for Christ and that her heart would soon heal, and this caused her to write the songs she sings for God... about God... Kind of like spreading His Word around. So the new blankets of words kind of refers to how God's Word can inspire us enough to do something worthwhile to spread His Word.

Leaving your freedom Dying for freedom

I'm not sure about the Leaving your freedom part, but dying for freedom probably refers to dying to be with Christ.

As for the chorus, that part kind of relates to the rest of the song. From what I'm seeing, it seems to be mostly about leaving a dark place when starting to believe in Christ... So not only could this freedom be about what He did for us but also how He may save us from darkness, therefore leading us to freedom...

Hope that helped. :)
