Actually Nick said that he was reading through something (possibly lovecraft for all I can remember) and came across the word incorporeal. He pretty much just made a story about this ghost and his experiences as one. I don't really think this song is meant to be interepreted, but meant to be taken at face value: a ghost story and such.
People can write from a surrealist point of view, and not everything has to be from the point of view or experiences of the actual writer. I do it all the time if I ever write things. Writing from the perspective of a character or thing that has nothing to really do with yourself really.
