I totally agree with the above comments, it definitely sounds like a loss of innocence to me. I think the "cut me and it feels good" lyric is a sort of foreshadow into the child's future of sick thoughts.
(Not that sadomasochism is particularly sick or anything... i just think that the way Martin sings the words makes it sound like a sick version of it.)
