I think this song is about depression and suicide. In the first verses Tom Delonge is singing about being sad and disconnected from everyone. He also talks about how he is trying to come in contact with God, but he is not getting an answer. The climax of the song (where it starts "Dont you go, come a little bit closer now") is God speaking back, basically saying, he loves him and just wants his son to come home, if he would like..
