I'm not sure what kind of "sense" John was trying to make, as I don't believe this song has any kind of message or tells any kind of story.
It is almost like a musical Haiku; imagine John looking at a snapshot of himself and setting the description of what he sees to music.
Also, the heavily reverbed sound at the beginning that sounds like an old phone dialing is John saying the words "shoot" and "shoot me" and having it echoed. The words were a reference to his heroin use.
Kind of ironic words considering how he died, huh?
