I think that these lyrics are about someone in the singer's life whom they can't live without even though that person isn't any good for them. Even though the singer knows that this relationship is going to turn sour, he will enjoy/tolerate it while it lasts. The other person is a contradiction in that they are the problem and the solution for the singer.
