I'd guess it's about struggling with addiction - though he's clean, the temptation is always there ("satan is singing me lullabies". But it's a positive song - "though I can touch you, you're so far away" - he knows he could go back, but he has no intention of doing so; and "though I'm still bleeding, I won't die" - he's determined to get through it.
Eloquent, succinct and soulful. Wish I could write like that!
