Singer Tommy Rogers explained in an interview that Chris Cornell's suicide influenced his lyric writing and the story of Automata, particularly in "The Grid". (The interview: https://youtu.be/ptW3CfYX_48)
So the lyrics "Distinct cries for help rain down" feels like a hint at Cornell, crying for help when depressed.
Also "Please don't wait up for me
I've finally locked the door
Please don't wait up for me
I can now move on" could be how a person thinks when they've decided to take their life.
