I believe that this song is about abuse by parents.
Having enough, and walking our the door.
"Look at this, it's me, walking away"
And the new friends that embrace him:
"My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
It's beautiful
I'd like for them to take me on"
perhaps it is a referance to drugs.
"Boy in the well" could be a metaphorical referance to depression.
"You wanted me to be someone that i could never be" - His parents could be dissapointed, angry, that he did not take the right career, he wasn't what they considered to be "normal", might have been shunned.
Just my thoughts on this mysterious and great song.
