I would argue that this song and a lot of the album is about what he revealed in the interview about his health problems. He said that no one can figure out what's wrong with him and that he couldn't wait to make music any longer. He then went on to say that if he goes down, at least he'll go down doing what he loves. I don't know Ben's religious beliefs but I think a lot of the album is written about his facing the reality of death.
