The references to the devil in this song seem like a metaphor for perversion, for a vice that is so appealing because it is just so fucking wrong, know what i mean?
Like a lot of songs by this amazing band, it seems to be from the perspective of another, perhaps a female.
"Horrible your eyes implode with Lucifer's hammer so you don't watch"
It's like she wants all this to happen, but feels impure and disgusting because of it. It's like the Ostrich syndrome; bury your head in the sand and everything that threatens your so called "safety" becomes invisible.
But it's still there.
