I don't think that the lyrics above are correct, at all.
This was a really dark time for Uncle Al. The Dark Side of the Spoon was produced in the shadows of Jourgensen's fight with addiction, rehabilitation, and the death of guitarist William Tucker. I think that this song reflects the withdrawal from life once known, and the emotional pull of the life of a junky, as well as the rehab experience.
