am i the only one who interpreted this song as being about heroin addiction?
i dunno this is a quick interpretation maybe someone else sees it the same way i do and can come up with something better
Bandages on my legs and my arms from you
Bandages, bandages, bandages
Up and down... (the bandages are covering up his track marks)
These bandages cover more than scrapes, cuts and bruises from regrets and mistakes (another reference to the various holes and bruises in his arm and he is stating that using he regrets using heroin)
I've been hoping your moping around the street again (he's thinking about it and is waiting for someone to tell him they have it)
I've been tripping from sipping the dripping dirty water tap(the dripping dirty water is his heroin filled blood and the fresh track is the tap)
I've been poking a voodoo doll that you do not know I made(the voodoo doll is the spoon)
These bandages are anonymity (anonymity is not letting anyone really know who he is which is a heroin addict and that's how he bandages up his problem and keeps himself safe)
I've been shaking from making an awful decision
I've been running and running
feels like my head is spinning round and round, around, around, around, around, around (he is getting sick and having racing thoughts from withdrawal)
I've been poking a voodoo doll that you do not know I made
For you, of you, let's see what needles do (the voodoo doll is the spoon and its made of heroin cause heroin is in it needle is self explanatory)
Don't worry now, don't worry now, don’t worry cause it's all under control... (the whole feel of this part with the music and lyrics is right after he shoots up the high and mellow feeling heroin makes you feel care free and like everything is under control)
