This song is basically about a person who is chafing against her mundane life.
She's looking for escape through a relationship:
"one day is one day less to live/ I want you to be my sedative"
and
"let's love like there is no tomorrow/ Shelter each other from the pain and sorrow"
She her existence feels a bit useless because the world is so big and evil:
"One tiny person in one shiny car/ Spinning on our manic star"
(the 'shiny car' could be a statement against materialism)
One part I find interesting is:
"Are you afraid of dying, too?"
There's a bit of condescension in the singer's voice. It's as if she's saying, every one places too much stock in life. She thinks she's above them because she's not scared.
