This song, put simply, means 'waking up'. It's about changing the status quo of your own mind. Changing your perspective, sometimes painfully, in order to break free from an old, obsolete, damaging part of your own identity.
As opposed to 'closing the switch' and letting the current pass through, instead 'open the switch' and move through the gate to see what possibilities await on the other side.
It's about destroying the old familiar and stagnant in favor of the new and unknown possibilities. Kinda like being born, it's a terrifying process. But literally everything awaits on the other side of this barrier.
Just listen to the lyrics with all of that in mind and everything about this song falls into place.
