I have interpreted this song to be about somebody who feels no love/has lost love and therefore lives life 'as a ghost' - secluding themselves from the world and the people around them. They attempt to disillision themselves that living this way is better than how 'most' live.
Boredom and spite takes over - they 'pick their poison' (get drunk) and go out in a 'violent haze'. They then drink more to 'wash their sins down the drain' and to clear their conscience. The viscious circle begins!
