I think that this "alien experience" that Ag00n is speaking of might be a woman as well. But I also found something else within the song that makes me think that he might be singing about an addiction to morphine or heroin.
First off, the name of the song is "Hooked". This could be a reference to an addiction to heroin or morphine.
"Pounding heart you shake me
... Take my word I'm trembling
for I know what I have felt."
There is shaking during withdrawals. Now he could be nervous around a woman, but I think that in the context, "been so close to an earthquake", inspires imagery of more violent shaking.
"Take my hand and lead me
To a place
For us to melt
Into one another"
Morphine or heroin is made into a solution (I won't say how), but it's done essentially by melting it. Then it is put into the person, or, "into one another".
"Think the inconceivable
Desire the untouchable"
Probably a description of the ecstasy felt from the heroin or morphine once it's injected.
"I've come to understand that bliss
Is quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll claim another life"
He looks back and realizes that the drug isn't giving him a true bliss. If he can break the habit he'll start his life over again.
"I've come to understand that kiss
Was quite impossible and if
I'll ever find a way
I'll halt the turn of time"
The true kiss of bliss isn't possible. But if he could he would stop time while feeling the pleasure of the drug.
"Pounding heart awake me
I have never been so far
From the shore
Waves mount up around me
Still I don't want to go back"
I think this part makes the best argument for this song being about heroin/morphine. Opioid users generally aim to dose at the "nod" where it could be described as being in an ocean of pleasure, and the user wants to stay in an ocean of waves of comfort. He doesn't want to come back to the 'real' world.
"Loving heart believe me
Your sincerity will
Give me the strength to
Work my way through the sea
Memorize the words you said"
He knows his inner strength will grant him the strength to stop using. He will no longer go back to the "sea" again. He wants to memorize his words of strength that will lead him to sobriety.
Now my interpretation might be entirely off, the song might be about a woman. But it's not far gone at all to personify an object of love as a woman. And in this case the object of love very well may be heroin. (The person derives happiness from the substance rather than from social ties, and the like. Thus it might be seen as some sort of destructive 'love'.)
