to me, i think this song is about the hypocrisy of the people around him and him admitting in a way that he is a slave to the same hypocrisy.in the part where it says i drift drift drift i think he is basically saying how he seems to be drifting through his life. at the end of the song he find in himself the need to get away from the world around him to "taste the breeze of every great city" and to change his life into something meaningful.
[as for the whole mental hospital thing, who the fuck cares?his music is great. end of story.]
