Even if Sing the Sorrow does tell a story, I think that each song has an alternative meaning. But it's up to the listener to decide what it is.
"Bleed Black" makes me think of someone that is destroying his social life. "I am exploring the inside, I find it desolate" means that he's lonely even when he's with people. His "confines" are the people around him, "recreating" him, making him more depressed by not paying attention to him. He's begging, or imploring, them to pay attention. "I'm hovering throughout time, I crumble in these days.
I crumble, I cannot find reflection in these days" means that he doesn't exist to these people.
In the second verse, he's "destroyed by the inside", the inside meaning his feelings of lonliness. The outside would be his social ties, and he destroys them.
The "I know what died" part would mean all of his relationships are gone.
"If you listen) Listen, listen
(Listen close) Beat by beat
(You can hear when the heart stops)" means that the people he cut himself off from don't really notice or care.
"I saved the pieces
(When it broke) And ground them all to dust" states again that he destroyed his social ties.

Anyway, that's just how I looked at the song.
