I think this song is really kind of depressing. I'm not so sure that Britt Daniel is necessarily celebrating this lifestyle. The chorus suggests that they do what they do to escape the reality of their situation, knowing full well that it won't last. Or maybe I've seen Trainspotting one too many times.
