The song is about two people having an affair. This verse sets the scene:
I mistook all your intentions
But you never did deceive
I have a helpless fascination
For the web you wove for me
He falls in love for a woman that he shouldn't have.
The other line that gives is a way is about sleeping in private hells. This implies they would be happy together but then at night have to sleep with their partners who they don't love.
The verse about changing his world is about the internal struggle - something has to change for him to find happiness. Either leave is lover or his wife.
