It’s about a man who lost something or someone he loves. This can be indicated as the first line says “I want to, I want to be someone or else I’ll explode”, probably indicating about how the death was not an accident, but it was on purpose by terrorists (you decide which one, from Islamic state to the klu klux klan)and how depressed he feels about the incident, like as though he will loose his path of good and go insane (like exploding) and take revenge on the people who wronged him.
“Floating upon the surface for the birds, the birds, the birds.” It may say that he blames an omnipotent being (something like God) for not stopping this and has began hating uncontrollably. This is because birds, especially doves, represent God. It may also seem like he thinks God’s just doing this out of curiosity or boredom when he says
floating apon the suface for the birds, like he’s just for God’s amusement.
You want me, well fucking well come and find me
“I'll be waiting with a gun and a pack of sandwiches
And nothing, nothing, nothing” like he’s tormenting the terrorist organisation to finish what they started. The gun symbolises the argressivneess between the two, the sandwiches may be the fact that he will wait for as long as it takes for them to arrive.
Now, about the “well come on and break the door down” part. That probably symbolises the fact that he wants the terrorists to come into their and his ultimate doom and demise as the guy has his perfect.
