Think of it as shifting from 2 perspectives. At first, it's "us" - the party scene, the secularists, the lost. "She takes a drink to see the atmosphere" - she's a part of us, she's one of us. This night's lost; she doesn't like this anymore, she doesn't want this, so she leaves. "She thinks she's finally found him (Him?" This is what makes me think she's found God, or rather, just something more. "She's always seen it" - she always knew it was there and true, but never followed it.
Then it shifts to the party scene - "She was 10 feet deep before they found her, and she couldn't recover," as opposed to when the others are 10 feet deep, like later, when "they were all just sinners". Why is this one unrecoverable? Either she's dead or she doesn't want to be recovered, and the sinners line makes me think it's the latter.
Then there's the whole bridge "Daylight, take us, lead us, on our way. There's a fire and I feel it inside my chest - there's a fire and I feel it in every breath. I know there must be something more than this. Daylight, take us, lead us, on our way." Maybe her thinking that, or maybe others who saw and want the same?
And then the confusing chorus. I think it's from the mind of the one's she's leaving behind. It comes off to me as - "We are everything. We can't die. We're everywhere. We don't need anything else." It's what she was leaving behind.
Could it be that she found God?
