Like johnny and 2world said, I think this is definately a song about the spirits that speak to John. If you just read the lyrics as their own sentences it really makes sense.
'I always faked my smile' his unhappy time before the addiction, then 'There's so many careless angels responsible for me' the people/spirits that got him back to where he is today?
Dunno. Just random thoughts. Absolutely beautiful song though. Love love love the way he sings 'These are the fares I pushed out of my way.'
