The Night Subscriber Lyrics

I think this is about someone who is suffering some kind of disconnect between his memories and his present existence. As the song lyrics state (If torpor had left my soul) Torpor is defined as 'a state of physical or mental inactivity; lethargy.' so this person is imagining if they had lost this they might be able to find peace again, happiness cause they would feel more connected with their mind, body and soul. Instead they continue and exist in this state of emptiness and uncertainty with voided out memories and vanquishing neurological functions even. As the songs lyrics state (Old songs lost their grace Send some light back to this place) Old songs lost their nostalgia to them because they are so detached mentally that they no longer mean what they used to, he's begging for someone help him find his right mind again so he once again live fully in the present & still have recollections of his past life.
