I think its a depression induced drug binge.
"Yeah this is how it ends
after all these years
tired of it all
hopelessly helplessly broken apart
he finally falls"
He has been depressed for so long, he never escapes the depression. His life feels as if its falling apart. It finally consumes him("he finally falls").
"He doesn't want to think
doesn't want to feel
doesn't want to know what's going on"
There are many bad situations in his life. He wants to forget and escape it all, never have to think about it. Not even know it is happening.
He starts taking drugs to deal with the pain of life, and depression, becoming addicted, hence "he's in love with a drug."
Through the song the addiction gets worse, he changes completely. And by the end, he is so drugged out his brain isn't functioning right, he killed his memory, and completely screwed him up mentally.
"he isn't really here anymore..."
This song is from the point of view of a close friend(maybe relative), they notice how much he has changed because of the drug use.
It is a very sad song to say the least. I've seen this happen many times..
