I'm pretty sure this song, like most Deftones songs, isn't meant to be taken literally. There are many metaphors, even contained within one song. The line in Sextape "the sound of the waves collide", could also mean sound waves colliding, like two people having orgasms. Bottom line is, you'll never know the "true" meaning of this song until Chino tells you himself. And even he may not know because as mentioned before, he does drugs, haha. The song is open to several interpretations, that's what makes it a good song. It sounds like a "sad" song because of Chino's tone, and voice in general. It's gorgeous, IMO.
