I guess if you think about "exploding" on the surface, it could simply refer to an orgasm and they could be talking about the literal act of "going down" on someone, but . . .
it's never that simple, is it?
Could it be that the person singing is a secret admirer, who is possibly talking about the torture of not having that other person - wanting to explode from the tension of loving someone who doesn't know that you love them, wanting even to "hurt" the object of affection in the same sense that he/she is hurting the admirer, and keeping them "inside" in that they are always thinking about this person? I can just imagine the singer almost stalking whoever they are singing about, saying "don't walk away" in their head over and over. Obsession. Not just a perfume.
