My opinion is that it's the typical reaction of using drugs. First he has anguish, and later on the 'tragic' turns to 'magic'. And with 'magic' he means, he's high and everything is different: 'my vision's getting fat, the rabbit's just a monkey in disguise
stars and pills and needles dance before our eyes'. The magic has such great impact that he can't live without drugs, he gets addicted: 'but we all know the hat is wearing me'. It's a fuckin great song! But i'm not sure if my comment is the real meaning of the song!!!
