Bugalou,
I always assumed that the "angel from my nightmare" line was about how their relationship saved him from loneliness or depression and that that makes him feel worse about breaking up. What you say sounds right, but I still don't understand "don't waste your time on me" if she's dead.
@Regos the Sane - If she's dead and he can't sleep because the memory of her is tormenting him, it could be a scream of desperation. She's maddeningly out of reach, and in his despair he unintentionally lashes out at the air around him trying to make her go away. "Leave me alone! You're already the only thing in my head and my heart. You don't need to torment me as well. Don't waste your time on me!"
