"your eyes, they swell like a riot, deranged
tomorrow you're laughing like a child again"
Means quick mood shifts: today the person is sad, crying so his/her eyes swell, tomorrow careless again. All human beings truly are shape shifters, always changing their mind, their opinions, their preferences. Second line of the song, "moods like you're pulled by the moonlight" references to human thoughts as tidal waves, controlled by external factors.
Not drugs.
