In mexico we have a saying that goes "ya es mas costumbre que amor." which means: It's become more habit than it is love. I think this is what it has to do with the song.
I didn't think about the drug references but they do make sense. However, my take on it was more about how this relationship was such a strain, so that as smart as it would be to let it die, it was so much work that you don't want to give up on it. Lie here charmed was closest to what I thought it was about.
(I could follow you and search the rubble):
because to him its such a game, she's the one that needs to fight for the relationship, so her following him is her trying to keep him in it with her,
(or stay right here and save myself the trouble)
or she could just let him walk away.
(or try to keep myself from seeing double)
or she could try to stay in it in a detached way like he is. and try not to invest herself as much as she already has.
in the beginning she talks about him making a killing, because he is the one who is getting so much from her without giving up much of himself, and I think in the end she's thinking about turning it around, so that she can make a killing, and be the one who has him wrapped around her finger.
