Song is about an addict.
Tied myself with wire...Tying off the arm while injecting the drug..
Let the horses run free... common term for those experiencing th initial rush of the drug entering the blood stream.
Punching in the numbers at the ATM machine...Getting more money to get another fix.
I did not notice the passers by and they did not notice me... He's higher then a kite.
@ksr6220021 I definitely see possible drug references in the song, but not the lines you described (probably some of the weakest lines to related to drugs IMO within the song).

"Playing with the fire
Until the fire played with me"
"Playing with the fire
Until the fire played with me"
Tried drugs (fire) and now the fire (drugs) control him. Which is common with users and addiction.

"At the moment of surrender
I'm falling to my knees
I did not notice the passers by
And they did not notice me"
"At the moment of surrender
I'm falling to my knees
I did not notice the passers by
And they did not notice me"
Whole verse could be interpreted as someone who has just taken drugs and oblivious to their surroundings.
"My body's now begging
Though it's begging to get back
Begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my consciousness
To the rhythm of yes
To be released from control"
Sounds like withdrawal symptoms from drug use.
"I was speeding off the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down till the pain will stop"
Rushing (the term speeding could be a double entendre?) home from their everyday job to get their fix (drugs) when they arrive home and forget the pain.
