"bound at every limb by my shackles of fear
sealed with lies through so many tears
lost from within, pursuing the end
i fight for the chance to be lied to again"
jesus was bout at every limb by nails, and "sealed" to the cross by lies and betrayl. He fought through so much heartache only to pursue the end result and still fought for us, the liars in all of us..

"bound at every limb by my shackles of fear
sealed with lies through so many tears
lost from within, pursuing the end
i fight for the chance to be lied to again"
metaphorically bound by sins, hidden by lies of unbelief, forcing so many tears and losing an identity. Longing only for the end, but still caught up in the lies. Also, look at the voice in these 4 lines... Different voices playing different parts, almost like 2 personas. The male voice appears to describe christ. While the female voice is herself. All plays along with this interpretation.
"you will never be strong enough
you will never be good enough
you were never conceived in love
you will not rise above "
these are the lies she's telling herself, the lies that are bringing her down. She's hearing the words the devil's thinking inside of her.
"they'll never see
i'll never be
i'll struggle on and on to feed this hunger
burning deep inside of me "
she does have a passion to feed some kind of longing of love, but is feeding on the wrong things.
"but through my tears breaks a blinding light
birthing a dawn to this endless night
arms outstretched, awaiting me
an open embrace upon a bleeding tree "
duh, christ. And the voice again christ saying there's a way out, the blinding light (star) birth (virgin birth) night (time of birth). Also meaning light as revelation, bringing a new world into the endless darkness of the world.
"rest in me and I'll comfort you
i have lived and I died for you
abide in me and I vow to you
i will never forsake you "
she and the dude are singing this together, almost as if they wish it upon each other, she's afraid to let go, and he's giving a promise.
Then she repeats those other 4 lines because she doesn't feel she can live up to the challenge. Then christ is yelling it back at her the truth. But she argues back, and the tie is severed at the break in music. Also the angellic ahhhh ahhing.
