There are definitely a lot of heroin references in the album. There's also a rather sick reference to the accident when William Burroughs (who was involved in making it & even sings) shot his wife dead while playing William Tell. This is pretty much what happens in The Black Rider - the Devil peddles his magic bullets but instead of winning the shooting contest, they kill the heroine.
