To me, this song is about Brant Bjork's departure from the band. Since "Welcome to Sky Valley" was the last album with Bjork, this seems to be like a good-bye song to him.
So this song is a continous conversation between one group of persons and a guy who's leaving (Brant?)..
Don't try to take me away,
Like I can't live without you,
Today, makin' love tomorrow,
So [A]way, swooping you're so fragile,
Die today, you disgrace the mortal
(Bjork speaking??)
[You??] Fight me lately,
Tried to someone,
[Bjork]
We've been laughing,
Since you've been gone,
[Other guys]
And I want to know,
Did you all enjoy the show?
[Bjork wanting to know if the guys have enjoyed this trip together]
It's so sad to see you go
And you know
Alone
So Soon...[Not in the lyric above but pretty sure I listen everytime]
(Other Guys.... maybe a little bit .. sad?... and thinking Bjork is going out of the band so soon and alone)
Hanging low today,
I replace the highway,
Love the only way,
Linking hands the wrong way,
[Bjork realizing grudges are innecesary and love's the only way, shaking hands is better than fighting]
So I bare to see you go,
It's so sad to see you go,
I just thought I'd let you know
[Other guys or somebody from the other guys letting Bjork know that he will be missed]
Pretty fucked up meaning but I always thought this would be "the" interpretation from this excelent tune. To me, the best from Kyuss...

I have no idea if this is the "right" answer or not, but I love the idea that this is what the song is about. Nice job.
