I think it's simply about depression. There's parts of the song where there's a lot of activity, it's all a blur, and not joyous activity but a confusing, unfulling, and contributing to a sense of purposelessness. I love the image of a "guide" showing someone who feels depressed and disconnected coming - a guardian angel but at the same time just someone - and showing them how to experience simple pleasures.
The part about "I'm watching you, I'm watching her, I take no pity from your friends" remind me of someone sitting awkwardly with a group of people at a bar, watching people but not interacting... not taking pity from the others who recognize how alone the person is feeling.

Just my interpretation...
