Definitely NOT about paparazzi, and I doubt the suicide one as well.

I can kinda see the media thing with the parts about fear and "I tell you a lie and you make it a statement" but it doesn't seem to fit as well with the rest of it.

"Is that your only entertainment? (Spoiling your desire)
To blow your minds on a one-way track"
Imagine a super pot head who does nothing, but get high. The entertainment is referring to getting high. He's asking like is that really your only entertainment, and is surprised by it because it seems so foreign to him and feels he's the only one who doesn't see the fun in it(am i really an exception). Spoiling your desire is referring to the lack of ambition and desire for a better life while being high, you can just kinda sit there in bliss or w/e and forget about problems. Blowing your minds = getting high, one way track referring to their heading toward worse addiction and eventually death.
Cold and crawling, you made it back
Fear is selling and your one with the fact
Counting the days for rebirth
Lost once again and how it hurts...
"Cold and crawling" = image of a junkie
"Rebirth" = getting back to sobriety
Last line = how lost a junkie would feel after coming off the drug, no friends, no family etc and the pain that comes from that.
"Corrosion of emotions
Is how you block your state"
This part is saying how the junkie is blocking their real emotions with the drugs which cause corroded emotions or fake emotions.
"Sleeping in denial" = denial that they're addicted and out of control
"Hunt for adrenaline is staggering, grand lack of emotions
You'll never face conclusions, you'll get what you want"
This is the stereotypical junkie: lack of emotions, never facing conclusions of what they've done, still getting what they want(their fix)
Bullshit it's about suicide.
It's about consumerism of the media, and how the media can twist anything into a story.
