I think this songs about someone's messed up childhood. It's actually really reminiscent of "A Child Called It".
Hold me back and hold me down
Hold me close, then push me around
Beat me up, beat me down to the ground
I'm sure I deserve it.
This part is about the child getting physically abused, and his trying to justify it with a child's mentality.
Left my world, left me alone
Locked inside, it becomes my home
Inside a hole, buried like a bone
I'm sure you had your reasons.
This part is about him being cast aside in the family, and how a child becomes introverted when suffering physical and mental abuse. Or about literally being locked away like in a basement. And again justifying or it could be retrospective sarcasm.
Out of your sight
Are you out of your mind?
In my absence, your heart
Never grew fonder.
This part is about that even though he was never around they didn't miss him.
