I see it as the speaker just being totally underwhelmed with reality; his partner, the general mundaneness of every day life.
To get him through the day, he looks at life as if it's something from a movie. He looks for something/someone to keep his mind stimulated...
Every moment like a sudden pleasure Every moment that will get you by
He knows it's useless to think about things as they really are, because reality is so damn plain compared to what we want it to be.
The speaker is interested in the lives of others; it's another form of escapism from wallowing in his own being.
I can relate to this song a lot.
