I am not sure what Warren Haynes means by these lyrics, but for some reason they are hauntingly prophetic to me. In a way they seem like the words of Jesus as they speak of dying yet returning. Personally, it speaks of resurrection...
The first video is the song with just the lyrics. The second one is Warren Haynes and Gov't Mule performing the song. Enjoy.

I shall return
As this wheel goes 'round and I search to find my way
Struggle just to hold on through an ordinary day
I do believe I'm slipping away
But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return
Fate should not have blinded me
For your beauty steals my eyes
and what good is my wisdom
when there are no words to say
How I feel everyday
But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return
Daylight finds me sleeping dreaming of my youth
But darkness calls my name out loud
And I answer to the truth
But I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return
Oh, I shall return though I'm losing myself
I shall return
I shall return from the depths of my own hell
I shall return
