My thoughts about this song is, that it's about a stepth dad the narrator doesn't like.
My reason:
"The language of the household
Is floorboard Morse code"
Well in his household, they don't talk properly in a good manner.
"I'm so embarrassed that I carry your name"
They are name related, by family name
"It's not a contract when your blood's not the same"
They are not blood related, only by name
"I know I'll never grow up to be the man you became"
The narrator and the other person is both guys, but the narrator haven't grown up yet, so he's not a full adult, like a parent would be.
