Another way in which this song could be taken [if it didn't have the word 'Baby' in it] is someone asking for God to show himself.
It reminds of Ill Mind of Hopsin 7 where he says 'Show yourself and then boom it's done, I no longer doubt the shit you're the one.'
They would give up all of their worldly possessions and leave it all for him, it's a pretty straightforward interpretation, but of course some of the lyrics don't fit with it. I agree with the Archduke Franz Ferdinand interpretation, but like Serj Tankian says, the meaning is whatever the listener makes it.
