I know this might not be the real meaning of the song, but as a Doctor Who fan, I can't help but notice the similarities.
I hear this song as The Master pleading to The Doctor.
"You are the enemy, a friend of me." Obviously, The Doctor and The Master are 'sworn enemies' but before that they were the best of friends.
"I am psychotic to the core, but I want more for it defines the very purpose, and reason I'm alive." The Master's whole 'purpose' is to cause chaos basically.
"And I have found insanity to be, the sanity I need for today." The Master is fine with being insane.
"You are lost in sanity you see, and I, I know you're alone." He knows The Doctor is usually alone, even when he has companions, he feels alone.
"So for now, come follow me home." When they're together, The Doctor feels at home because The Master is the last familiar thing from Gallifrey.
"It seems to be the answer that I need, but I have felt this virus spreading all along." The answer being The Doctor's help, but The Master has heard the drums for so long, corrupting him.
"Doctor, can you heal me now?" He's asking for The Doctor's help.
"I'm breathing but I'm breaking down." The Master's acknowledging that while he might be living, he's falling apart inside.
"My vitals are screaming out, So, Doctor, can you heal me now?" Every part of him wants to give up, but he knows he needs help.
"Caught in the rhythm of the sound of the siren's love." The sound of the drums, beating in his head.
"Waiting to die, she pulls me slowly." The descent into madness was slow, and now he just wants to die.
"Give me the push to run, Lifting the loaded gun." He needs The Doctor to help him fight against the drumming, my mind goes to the scene where John Simm's Master stands up to Rassilon, using his powers to stop them.
"Waiting for the day, these thoughts will go away, knowing forever I'm alive." The Master knows he's going to have to deal with the drums, and it will haunt him for a while.
