Song sounds like a self-diagnosis to me, almost like a cry for help. Jimi had problems with excessive drinking and he would sometimes get angry and become abusive when drunk. I read that he had been sexually abused as a child by a man in uniform. Frustrating mess because he knew he had mental problems but he didn't know what to do about. Last lines are kinds of depressing, almost seems like he was predicting his own death.
@Dingdong29393939 -- Jimi wrote a poem just before he actually did pass, and it seems prophetic. "The story of life is quicker than the wink of an eye....The story of love is Hello and Goodbye. Until we meet again.
