I agree that it's about breakups. It looks to me like the person talking [i'm assuming it's a he just for the sake of my time] is going through a whole bunch of crap related to the breakup, but is numbing himself to all of it. However, he still knows that a big crash is coming. That might be what " I can transcend you and mentally bend you " is referring to; he's saying he can rise above it and distort it in his mind to make him think he's doing ok, but then he goes back and says " but I can't handle the shit that I'm into ". I think that when he realizes that it's the crashing point because from then on how he describes himself just goes downhill with every word.
BTW: This is an awesome song :-). To me there are a few different kind of rock songs, and one type is magical. This is so in that group. The song is just so odd, but it's catchy because of it. I don't know which one I like better, Cold or Starless :-O. ( both totally rock my face and kick my ass though ;-) )
