I like this analogy. I think this song in part has to do with something I mentioned in another song about him. He's paranoid. He's afraid that someone's out to get him and he doesn't want to answer the door for fear he'll be taken away for something he did or because they are going to lock him away. "nothing wrong with my state of mental health...Is it the man come to take me away" the man in this case could be workers from a psychiatric clinic coming to take him away because they may believe him to...

This would appear to be a normal, "I want to be left alone" kind of song, but its much deeper.
The following make it an 'abnormal' situation:
1) Nothing wrong with my state of mental health. 2) I like it here with my childhood friend (he is alone)
Children have 'imaginary friends', can this be his insanity?
No it cannot be, because whatever he is doing is illegal: Is it "the man" come to take me away".
1) Its not my furture that I can see (the consequenses) 2) Its just my fantasy (the consuming fire of the now)
Drugs? Porn? The list goes on... Something he 'felt' as a child...
