The thoughts of a dying atheist on his way to heaven "And if I belong I'll be longer than expected." Meaning if he's able to enter, he'll stay, perhaps. "And if I'm wrong, the mighty and strong will be rejected." If his beliefs are wrong, and there is a god, and the bible is is his word, then maybe it refers to the meek shall inherit the earth. Just the impression I get when I listen to this song, a soul floating slowly across the sky, mentioning what he sees along the way.
