The meaning of the song is quite easy to understand in multiple ways: even when your humanity is fading away, there's a place deep inside you that will protects your wills, your integrity, and help you make it through every difficult moment. I just wanted to add that the "wooden doors" are calling again a natural element, the wood, and the whole album rotates around this concept, like it's said in "In The Shadow of Our Pale Companion". Thus, the song reconnets with the opening tracks in multiple ways: the man wants to die with honour and pride preserved.
