I would agree Mitchious05 is off on the meaning. I don't hear that at all.
What I hear has more to do with the state of the world and us as temporary creatures here. This particular section gives the most evidence to my interpretation:
White dwarf, red giant
It's empty in space
And where there's matter there's violence
I never got it, I never got it before
The protagonist is constantly coming to terms with what it all means, existentialism, and speaks out against his (and all of our) eventual fate in dying. His language ultimately fails him in this case because who can possibly explain the complexities of life, death, and why we're even here?
Although having said all of that he comes to the not so bitter conclusion that "we have a lot to be thankful for". It's a bit tongue in cheek maybe, but also very true if you consider his ability to live before dying.
