I disagree somewhat. I believe that the person is genuinely depressed about his life. He talks about how useless it is in the last verse, where the only purpose of his life is to destroy. And if nothing else, it is simply a yearning for someone to catch him, to give him purpose. For example, "if I fall" vs. "when I fall."
Either way, it is a masterpiece of a song itself, and literally their best one. It is a perfect "I'm depressed" song.
