Heard Somebody Cry Lyrics

I think this song is about a ghost and this one before dying. The guy feels paranoid and scared, he talks to himself repeating that he is alive, that he exists and that he is not the ghost who cries. While that ghost (himself) tries to warn him about different things and explain that they are the same person, but fails multiple times, frustrated he begins to cry, which is the one he himself heard at the beginning. It is as if time has been folded like a sheet of paper and both ends coexist in the same place.
