I think I'm going through exactly what this song is trying to say. Orchids are philosophically phallic symbols: they represent sex, and the seeds can be ground into a highly-intoxicating drug. I think the meaning is that Corey/the object of the song is addicted to someone, maybe for sexual gratification or just to feel wanted, yet he knows no good will come of it, and he can't help it.
