He is the watcher, the ghost. Everybody hears and sees him but does not actually hear him, all they hear is words that mean nothing to them. They look at him as if he's a robot, used only for working
"I built this place with broken parts" - he tried/is trying to build a new self with his older broken self
"just like they said" - people told him this would happen or he told himself in third-person
"i'm safe in here\irrelevant\just like they said" - he's not responding to anything going around him; he's locking himself away in his head, where he can just watch
"my voice just echoes off these walls" - nobody hears him, responds, answers his questions, ignores his feelings.
"you feel me breathe\i am watching you\i see it all" - he's watching and they can feel his presence
"the many ways you can't get to me" - he's locking himself up, nobody can contact him or make him respond to anything
"oh the things i could do (if i wanted to) " - he knows he can do anything if anybody would at least listen
"and i just slowly fade away\you will never ever get to me in here" - like in his 10 Miles High song, you will never get him because he is locked inside his head, where, since his "voice echoes off these walls", he feels he is dissapearing
