I agree with maxgreen. It could be an inner conflict.
"Why are you here, are you listening? Can you hear what I am saying? I am not here, I'm not listening... I'm in my head and I'm spinning." Sounds like he's talking to himself in a sense. As if he has someone else inside him. When he repeats it, it's like he's frustrated or something with whoever he's talking to and then the voice that replies(which could be in his head) is calm. And "Is this who you are? Some sweet violent urge. A weak fallen man with the promise of an end?" is almost like he's reprimanding himself or something. But that's just what I think. I have an idea on the second verse though. But oh well. I could be wrong. I've never tried to interpret a song before. All in all, it's a great song. My personal favorite is The Fantasy.

That's a pretty good interpretation.
