Anyone who has struggled with addiction probably gets this song word for word.
He lays out the highs of the highs... of the drinks, the wandering, the speed, whatever.
"Everyone can see I'm no good." This is both the lurking self-deprecation and also the eff-off feeling you get when you're riled up and you get the stink-eye.
He moves on to a recovery meeting and the thoughts you have when you're listening to "pros" blah-blahing away about their "crap"... and you're not ready to give in. The irony here is that any recovery "pro" knows there are no pros, there are only people who make it one day at a time.
The references to the moon are simply be the cold, constant companion you have when night-wandering. You are "alone, but not lonely", which is a fancy way of saying "lonely, but buried under your own visions of the world which nobody else gets".
"I won't come down for anyone". I know this feeling well.
