I belive that this song is made of of four separate entities/states of mind, that are battling each other. Once one takes over, the other one wishes to drown it out and replace it, continuously.
I am losing ground...
I stay inside my bed...
-these are the states of mind which portray the current state of his being, his deep depression and fathlessness in all things and all people and their intentions.
I am always falling down...
You would know, wouldn't you...
-in this state of mind, he is being completely truthfull with himself, realizing he needs help, but is hesitant to hold on to this thought.
I do not want this...
Don't you tell me how I feel...
-here he flat out refuses he needs to be helped or that there is anyone who could sufficently offer him adequate help.
In the last few "I want..." lines, The narrator strives or dreams about a better life, one where he can SEE, KNOW and DO all he wishes to acomplish succesfully, and to ease his curiosity. He does not want to remain a mess and a failure.
In the line " I want to fuck everyone", he doesn't refer to a sexual act, but uses sex as a metaphor for getting to know all the people on a deep pesonal level, hoping that maybe, there are a few others like him...
The 4th line of the song "I fear I am the only one who feels this way" forshadows this.
