I completely agree with magistar's interpretation. I think this song is about someone who is bitter and disillusioned with life seducing a young, inexperienced, and naive person to ease their own pain. It's basically about sex and misplaced affection.
"Won't somebody save me" -- implies that he is miserable, but unable to help himself. He needs someone to dull the pain.
"You've crossed the walls, excelled" -- person has surpassed their expectations, and crossed the 'wall' into his heart. This does not necessarily mean he loves that person; he simply takes notices of the fact that the naive person is truly devoted to him: "You always have / You always will"
"Further along through their hell / All for my heart, I watch you kill"
I interpret these 2 lines as the naive person hurting other people who are close to them just to satisfy their seducer. That could be breaking up with your current partner, or distancing yourself from friends/family, etc
"Now spread your wings and sail out to me"
whenever someone says "spread your wings", they're usually referring to a young adult who's coming of age and blossoming into adulthood. It also has a double meaning: angels have wings, and his young victim is also going to be his saviour
Finally, here's my analysis of the chorus:
"And if you're feeling lucky
Come and take me home
And if you feel loved" -- refers to the gamble that the seduced victim is making. When you bring someone home, how do you know they're not dangerous? Or a psychopath? when you fall in love with somenoe, what if you don't know who they really are? Earlier I said that this song was partly about misplaced affection, and here's where I got that interpretation. The young victim believes that they're in love, but they have no idea if they're making a mistake or not.
The singer is telling them to take a chance with him and save him if they "feel lucky" -- even though it may not be a good decision...
