I feel this song might be about suicide. I don't know why, but I just get the feeling that she's trying to overdose or something...well never mind.
Anyway, I think that this song is about dying inside. There's a lot of things like "super automatic pilot" self-sustaining system" and "cruise control" to suggest that this person is just going about the normal routine, pretending that everything's fine when in reality, there's a huge crisis going on inside of them.
Also, I dunno if I'm right about this but instead of "distressed, her" I always heard "disaster" so the line would be "cruise control disaster kinda cursed and kinda blessed her" ... maybe this means that whoever it was just went along, pretending everything was fine, possible drinking away her sadness, when all of a sudden something happened and made "cruise control" go wrong and she couldn't keep acting like it was fine and so there was this huge meltdown and...and...I dunno. I'm getting carried away.
