I don't think it's necessary to resort to as radical an idea as schizophrenia, though they were certainly treading that ground with "Who Can It Be Now".
I think this is clearly just a song about insomnia related to anxiety. I've suffered from it for years, and I can tell you straight out that when it hits, it's better to go for a walk and clear your head rather than try to fight it out "alone between the sheets". You look at the stars, chill out, and that nullifies the "overkill", the unnecessary worrying about situations you know will be okay.

What a fantastic song.
