Here's my interpretation... he talks about wanting Jesus to tell him what to do, letting him know what he's supposed to say or accomplish throughout life in order to get to Heaven. But he feels as if Jesus is not there for him and not listening to or telling him anything, hence "I won't get to Heaven 'cause I'm lost and I'm gone". He thinks that he is a sinner, and if there is a god, he isn't going to tell him what to do in order to get to Heaven, if it's even an actual place. It's a very hopeless and sad song, but I can relate to it on a lot of levels. Really beautiful.
