He's a man whose only wishes are to travel the stars, alone, and play the piano.
He desires nothing more from life.
He only wants to left alone.

Seccom Masada's usual interpretation is that he is Madotsuki's (possibly former) piano teacher. It has also been interpreted that Masada might have been a drug user, and the crashing of his UFO was meant to represent his 'crash' (Overdose, possibly his death as well).
There has been speculation that Madotsuki had lived and slept in Masada's flat outside the dream world (represented as an UFO in her dream) for some period of time, this could suggest that Masada is an adult that she trusted before she became a shut in for some reason. Their relationship seems to be platonic, it could be that Madotsuki had a brief feelings for Masada before, but didn't know her feelings towards him (in which he speaks an alien language). However the siren could represent police sirens on their way to arrest Masada as the authority suspect that he is having a nonconsent relationship with Madotsuki due to her being a young teenager.
Also the UFO where Masada lives in is simplistic and spartan, with only the big piano looking control and a table with two chairs only, could suggest that Masada is a struggling pianist who earns side income from private piano lessons.
Many fans speculate Masada was a drug user, and may have died from a "crash", or overdose. This is represented when the alien ship crashes on the alien planet.
Another rumor is that he may have died in a train accident. This is shown when going down into underground Mars; the flights of stairs there are similar to those of a subway station. It is also underground, like many subway stations. At the bottom is a large pile of what seems to be train wreckage, with a figure (Mars-san) crying next to it. Mars-san could represent the people who mourned over Masada's death, and the wreckage itself could point to death by a train wreck. The fact that sad music plays during it only boosts this. Also interacting with Mars-san results in a small 3 note piano song playing. This could be one of the mourners telling what happened, a story about Masada, or just mourning.

That's just ripped from the Yume Nikki wikia Masada page…
You didn't even try paraphrasing that shit.

Masada was a the mute dad (with a serious case of strabismus, he was legally blind.) of her friend, Monoe, and Monoe's twin, Monoko. After his wife(one of the beheaded women) was killed with a knife a few days after the birth of his two children, then his first daughter was hit by a car, the other disappeared, he lived alone. Madotsuki occasionally visited, and he gave her piano lessons. He eventually went insane. Madotsuki then subconsciously interpreted this in her dream, giving him googly eyes and no mouth. In her dream, all he did was play piano and wonder around, showing his blindness. Dream and out of dream, he was severely afraid of knives. His spaceship decent and crash into mars represents his decent into insanity. The creature crying next to his ship represents Madotsuki's feelings at his breaking.

I think Masada is like a best friend of Madotsuki. His ship/area in general is very calm, and he doesn't try to scare you or anything; I think he's like her older, wise best friend, like somebody who would tell you what you should and shouldn't do in life, but is still able to be your friend and joke around with you. I believe the crash symbolizes Masada (or whoever's) real-life drug crash/overdose/death, because the environment you're in suddenly becomes dangerous as you plummet toward the foreign planet (Mars), and Masada is freaking out, as opposed to his seemingly calm and friendly attitude. I also think that it could be possible that whoever Masada is supposed to symbolize crashed in a train, explaining Mars-san. Mars-san probably represents Madotsuki's grief and depression from the loss of her best, and possibly only friend.
Picture somewhat unrelated.

Ignoring any theory about Madotsuki's relationship with him, I see him as the older brother's friend you find in shoujo. You're crushing on him, and may be you push social boundaries a bit, but you'll never really be intimate with him. He's nicer and warmer to you than anyone else you know and it makes you giddy but it's nothing to him.
When I go to see him it doesn't feel like I'm escaping a world of chaos. I've always without thinking phrased it as 'he's letting me visit'. If the game won't take me after multiple attempts, I treat it like Masada wants some space. But if I arrive on that staircase I think he's longing for company.
Putting a theory to that I guess the teacher position suits best. Nothing sexual, he never enters the bed with you and it's reasonable to assume he lets Madotsuki rest there without romantic connotations. He's concerned for her, which is why he lets her come to his home, use his bed, but he also needs someone because his home is so devoid of life. There's an empty seat that stares at him when she's away.
I feel, the piano being big as it is, that may be he was a performer at some point. Its size is daunting but tempting to idle fingers. It guides his way amongst the stars like a control panel though in the end he still crashes and is trapped there. He prefers to play the piano than to see the empty chair.
