I'm not 100% sure about the ending of this song, but I've always considered it a song about, well "Cigarettes", and the addiction that is smoking. It's a person justifying why they smoke, and also deluding themselves that they won't fall victim to the negative effects of it.
"I'm not afraid
I'm unafraid
I'm different from the rest somehow"
He's not afraid of getting Cancer, because he's different from all the rest.
I think a point of view is of a person with loved ones who are dying from Lung cancer after years of smoking.
"Blind to the wind, the news
And the culture
Deaf to the sound that leaks
From your voice
Take a deep breath and pray
For a second one"
Even as the smoker's voice rattles, and can barely breath anymore.
