Based on the album artwork, which depicts a devil ministering to an old man laying in a bed, I think this song represents a rich, powerful person coming to the end of their life. They realize that all their wealth and power, all the things they've come to rely on, mean nothing when faced with death. They are being tempted by Satan to turn to him, in the face of such a tragic realization of loss.
