Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
[Intro]
Hey
Hey
[Verse 1]
Driving with no headlights (Headlights)
A rebel 'til the afterlife (Afterlife)
Speeding through the edge of time
So just try to stop me, try to stop me
I want an individual mind (-Dual mind)
Pray we'll never sleep tonight (Tonight)
The perfect over-counter drug, yeah
So just try to stop me, try to stop me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no
When it hits in my toe
Drink me back and reload
Here we, here we go
[Chorus]
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
Like the rocket gets you high (La, la, la, la)
Bring me closer to your flame
Light me up, won't feel the same
We're just stardust in the night (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (Kiss the sky)
[Verse 2]
Was born to take your innocence
A rebel, I'm the influence
Addicted to the thrill of it
So just try to stop me, try to stop me
I want an individual mind
Pray we'll never sleep tonight
The perfect over-counter drug, yeah
So just try to stop me, try to stop me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no
When it hits in my toe
Drink me back and reload
Here we, here we go
[Chorus]
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
Like the rocket gets you high (La, la, la, la)
Bring me closer to your flame
Light me up, won't feel the same
We're just stardust in the night (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
Bring me closer to your flame
Light me up, won't feel the same
We're just stardust in the night (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
[Bridge]
Try to stop me
[Chorus]
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
Like the rocket gets you high (La, la, la, la)
Bring me closer to your flame
Light me up, won't feel the same
We're just stardust in the night (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, kiss the sky (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, bullet (La, la, la, la)
Like a bullet, kiss the sky
[Outro]
Like a bullet, kiss the sky

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
