i agree with musiccxxx that this is about some form of drug abuse. the whole "pretending to play god" probably either means that they realize they're killing themselves (aka doing god's job, in a way) or they think they're going to live through this but everyone else thinks they're going to die, so they aren't really playing god it just looks like it (from their point of view)
i dunno that's just what i got from those lines.
and "it's a one time thing, i promise. besides, i can quit when i want"
typical words from someone who abuses drugs and doesn't realize that they will get addicted and continue to abuse them.
it's a sad song, to me at least.
and this is so weird, but as i wrote this i looked up at the clock and realized it was 11:12 :| freaky coincidence.
