I have two interpretations for this song, both of which I'll share.
Number 1: This is her talking to a drug-addicted friend about how she's always been there for him or her, and how it's time to stop. They're "always at meltdown", meaning that they're about to break down at any moment, and she's always taken care of them. Now, she wants to have her own life insted of being her friend's mother and is willing to give up the friendship because at this point, the friend doesn't wanna quit. The line "So look in the mirror, look for the glass" refers to maybe doing lines off of a glass mirror, and the last line, "I’m just a girl that you lost to cocaine" means that her friend doesn't want to give up the coke, so said friend has lost her because of the unwillingless to quit the habit.
Number 2: This is her conversation to the drug she adores; cocaine. She personifies the cocaine, making it sound like a friend. She's been it's buddy, "through thick and through thin", and has let the drug live through her "smell, sight and touch". However, she realizes that she has to quit, because the cocaine has taken over her life ("See I’ll never get laid, while I’m running your life"). She thinks the coke, her best friend, needs to have a life on its own, which it can't, obviously, but she wants it to "cut her loose" and let her out of her addiction. The lines below that might refer to her personifying a line of coke on a mirror, waiting for her to snort it, but she's saying she won't, because she's walking away from her last line. She doesn't want the drama that a life involving drugs entails, and she has a lot to deal with, because she's the girl that once belonged to someone, but that someone lost her to coke.
@j-love I really like your second explanation of this song’s meanings. I’m going thru a tough and long time obsession with the coke, and this song really made me reflect, on thing’s perhaps for the better or for the worse! Either way, I’ll probably be waving
