I think this song is about how we need constant stimulation and are ignorant of the world around us because of it. We're fed with constant stimulation and we don't try to do anything to change the world, we take life from a can and are happy with it, instead of trying to improve it, because we're so obsessed with our own hedonistic tendencies. There's also an element not quite of self-loathing, but again, because we're fed so much shit we don't have to look at ourselves and change ourselves, we don't want to have to introspect because we wouldn't like what we see. I think the gasoline itself is supposed to be used to burn our past and the parts of our personality we don't want to see.
