i saw him live the other day and he said it was about his brother, michael, who died of aids.

yes. it's pretty clear. his older brother died of aids. this song is about him being very depressed and using drugs. and being tempted to die, to be with his brother. but then deciding to choose to live instead. "don't kill yourself to raise the dead, it never works, you'll only end up joining them."
