actually, it's a song by Bob Dylan. Guns n' Roses just covered it.
it REALLY means to be on one's deathbed

Do you recommend the track? it quite is "Knock knock knocking on Heaven's door", that would recommend that he's loss of existence. Brings to thoughts clone of Dan Glover keeping Mel Gibson in his palms after Mel has been shot (what replaced into that action picture?) constantly strikes me to tears.

knocking on a door. hello is anyone there? hello im out here is anyone going to answer?
a badge is a symbol of authority, but no man has authority over god, so as he begins to die, he realizes he cant bring his badge with him because the lord will not accept it, so he asks his mother to take the badge off his dead body to prepare for the afterlife, much like the greek place two coins on the eyes of the dead to pay the tool into death, but christianity is much like terminator time travel, you go naked! that is you cant bring anything with you. much like his guns will not be accepted in heaven. but he asks for his guns to be put in the ground, burried, hidden in shame. he realizes that he must put his old life behind him, if he is to start a new one, he figures he will try heaven first and see if they take him. Knock knoc knocking, signafies that he is repeatedly knocking as in he is getting no answer, thinking that maybe he did mess up? what have i done with my life? is it too late to change

I think that it's pretty much self explanatory!
