I think the song could mean that she is taking the energies of others which feel inferior to her in some way and this causes complications such as sexual tension or love that cannot be obtained because of circumstance. So whilst everyone is in desire and somewhat in pain (since love is based on insecurity by a certain extent) she dwells on peoples weakness as her motivator.
