This song definitely reminds me of some sort of abusive relationship where problems were covered with physical comfort "embraced in vain". Sounds like both parties let themselves be seduced but it could be just that the narrator is finally opening their eyes to the person that they have given in to. This dissolution leads to the kind of explosiveness in this song. The riff that hits right at the chorus is one of my favorites. The whole song is a reminder to myself about not giving control of my life to others.
