to me, this song is about a person that has spent their life (or at least part of their life) building friendships, relationships, and then all of the sudden they find themselves alone with no one to call, and they are trying to reestablish some of the connections with people they have lost. they run alone, and have lost part of their life. they are almost afraid to go out and live life, so they choose to sit inside and ruminate over what has happened.
There's a dragon with matches that's loose on the town
Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down.
someone, maybe themselves, has a tendency to get angry at other people. in return, those people get angry at him too. fire on the mountain? maybe they tend to run from situations.
i have no idea if any of what i said is valid at all.
