I don't think it's about a bad relationship. or at least doesn't have to be. the first lines also could be about the addiction. about somebody telling him to stop and he just doesn't want to listen.
"A couple more for breakfast

This could definitely be defined as drug abuse.
Or he could be referring to the body pouring down the street. As if there's more and more people dying everyday and no one is doing anything about it.
