The Dolphin Trance Mix is a great version. I was first introduced to this song in the Mitsubishi commercial.

Back in 2002 I had the experience of knowing some very serious drug addicts. These drug addicts identified with this song heavily and told me that the true meaning of this song was about drug addiction.

Days go by and still I think about you..... Days when I couldn't live my life without you. (drugs).

You Feel me when I'm at my Worst Feeling as if I've been Cursed Bitter Cold Within

Sounds like when he's at his worst is when the drugs feel him or he feels them.

Still a whisper on my Lips (crack cocaine/heroine) A feeling at my Finger Tips (the feeling) Pullin at my Skin (itchy feeling those drugs give you)

And in the Acoustic version: "I'm so tired I can barely move I'm so tired of the things we do yeah you"

After a long binge this is how the drugs leave you...

Anyone agree?

I certainly like that it can be interpretated to something else other than love. So yeah, it could definitely be drugs. (the way you describe the three lines above, perfect)

Agree totally 100%. Video confirms it to me when it says "He couldn't stop...so she left". The dancing is a metaphor for the drugs. And then he dances to bring her back. That's the insanity of addiction. An addict loses someone they love because of their addiction and the only thing they know how to do is to use more to kill the pain and reminisce about the good times.
