it's a dark love song about an addictive relationship.
the guy is an asshole and he knows it. they want to love each other but it doesn't work. it is an unhealthy relationship.
he wants to try to do things right, and for things to work. they both do. but knows better that it can't happen the way she wants it.
he feels bad, because he's a jerk and has done shitty things to her.
"pour us a road, we'll both drink and drive" she lets things continue, rather than just being done with him, she "pours the road" as in , starts things up and gets the idea of them being together , which leads to him going along with it all... and they get caught up in things, that is the role she plays in the addiction. she starts it up because she loves him even though she knows better, he's emotionally/psychologically abusive. they can't really follow that road she "pours" (happiness together) , hence the "drinking and driving" they both get wrapped up in fantasy land pretending it can work.
they have a strong sexual chemistry. he can take her cheap shots because he knows he deserves them, and just wants to enjoy the good between them while it lasts. he knows it won't last though.
the "lips go dry" is probably kind of in reference to her realizing things just aren't right because of all the things he's done to her. and the "wine going to her head" is like him saying she is crazy to be doing this and loving him after everything shitty he has done to her.
she wants to put blame on him, but he puts it right back on her because no matter what, he can always say "you asked for it" basically - because she is still with him. she keeps starting it all back up again. addicted. so to him she deserves what she gets and is just as destructive by participating in an unhealthy relationship.
he wants the love they're sharing in that moment to last. and that in the moments like this, only they know the passion they share. no one else would understand their craziness. to everyone else its just an unhealthy relationship. but they love they share in these moments is inexplainable , only they really understand.
he knows the "up" stage in the relationship isn't going to last because their relationship is an emotional rollercoaster. this moment isn't going to last. she's ticking because he knows any moment she'll come to her senses once again and want to leave, she resents him, she can't handle the emotional and psyhological abuse of being in a relationship with someone dark like him.
the darkest part of the song to me is him saying "your ticking makes my blood move" - getting her angry and upset IS WHAT HE LIKES. he's an asshole, but he can't help it.
be happy you get what you do - probably means this for both of them. he's an asshole so this is probably showing his narcissism here. but i think it's also him saying it to himself, because he knows he's lucky to get anything at all from her.
"make him notice with both fists, cause quitting alone with never make you dry" - not sure what this means exactly. but i think it means if she tries to end the relationship, it doesn't work. "get you dry" like not being addicted to alcohol, but being addicted to EACH OTHER. she can't quit him on her own, she has to get him angry enough to want nothing to do with her. because if she keeps coming back, he will keep allowing it to continue. so they have to quit together for it to really end the addiction.
and he knows this is going to happen so he wants her to give him everything she has got.
i think this means both that he wants to enjoy the loving moments they have while it lasts. but also to "let him have it" like he deserves her fighting back, he WANTS her to fight back. she's taken too much from him... his arrogance will make him abuse her love. he loves her but they can't be together because he hurts her.
