Irate said it correctly. Pete Loeffler stated that one of his friends was suffering from the drug Ritalin, and this inspired him to write the song. If you've seen the video, its kinda like a visual of what people who take ritalin have to deal with, because many of them sit and daydream all day, and ritalin is supposed to help them concentrate. The images of the Angel, the shark, the mini golf set, the green button, and the scenery where Sam plays the drums are all objects within the cubicle of the victim. And he also sees a picture of two doctors on a magazine, which causes him to remember them constantly forcing and offering him to take more drugs, and they look like peppermints because they are supposed to be good for you. Towards the end, the phone begins to ring, and you can see the green light of the button flash, which draws his mind's attention, and causes his conscience to kinda "levitate" over to the light. Of course, sometimes ritalin does not work, which is exactly why pete picks up the phone call, and then hangs up, and begins to stare around again
