I know it's not actually about this, but this song really reminds me of being on meth.
"So excited...in a black cell of forever" - Just being strung out and completely spent after a week long binge. "Flicker like a freak" especially conjures the image of being alone in a dark room illuminated by my Bic lighter for hours on end.
"I am sad, elated...enemies stay close" - Depressed, but high. I've abandoned my friends, who are at home sleeping at 3am while I'm out spending my time with people who fully support my self-destruction.
"They offered me...steady, where are you?" - Lost the girl I loved (used to always tell her "you look like a million bucks, kid") in exchange for a steady and cheap emotional quick-fix. I didn't stay very steady for long though, and it definitely didn't stay cheap when I needed a gram just to stay awake through school.
I know it's irrelevant, but it's kind of eerie how perfectly it recalls the feelings.
