I think that this song is a comment on the misery that comes with drug use.
There's fake gold melting in my hands
Took it and lost some of my friends
You are bound to be abandoned by frustrated friends as you sink deeper into addiction...note that he also acknowledges here that drugs aren't really as great as they seem...they're fake gold, not real.
There's God...there's me
There's Saturn...there is me
Forget everything in between
This seems to me like he's saying that because of drugs, he's closer to Saturn than he is to God. Drugs take him away from God, as they do everyone.
