I think this refers to a near death experience (NDE). What makes me think of it is the reference to the end of the tunnel and the light and the sparks... Also, they say that when you have a DNE you may see the loved ones who already passed away, and he mentions his dad at the foot of the stairs. So I think this song is about accepting one's death, revisiting all the events of one's own life and coming to accept it's time to go.
