To me this song has the whole lack of identity theme but also about feeling victimised and mistreated by "friends". I can't be fucked to analyse the whole thing but heres the general message I get from the chorus.
Old man lonliness is a son of a bitch-he feels excluded by everyone
Both hands bound, can't scratch the itch-he can't escape or control it
Cut off all loose ties, and bleed for days- He wants to cut himself off from everyone but he knows it'll just hurt him more
Who can stand veins with friends like these?- Obvioulsy about self harm. He hates whats happening so he takes it out on himself.
As for the rest of the song just relate it back to my theory nd it should make sense.
This song is fucking awsome, I;ve had the album for ages but not listened to it much nd I put it on the other day and this song just stuck out to me. Go buy it!
