I think the song uses alcholism as a way for aesop to say "I don't wanna be a washed up loser".
"I spy a toddler on the corner with her bubbles and her dipstick
I witness the fusion of her breath and her amusement
And it killed me and it stabbed me and it cut me clear open
The notion that this child timid in her sins embraced pleasure Within a token of a moment"
How could you not get this? We grow up and we forget how to enjoy the simple pleasures/Ignorance is bliss.
