This song follows up from deathtripper which was a memory.This one is very similar to Jupiter`s eye.
He describes his feeling again ,even plotting self-harm or suicide.Again the use of Rhyme and percussion drives the insanity feeling forward.This is progression towards an obscure outcome.
"increase the dose diminish the high"
I don`t think he is talking about drugs here but his addiction of thinking to much of Her.
"A smile is a pipe dream suffering - aged like wine"
He refuses to be happy or maybe he cannot,but he knows the more he tries to do it the easier it will get,but he likes the feeling of self loathing to much.
"coughing up blood with my mind on fire juggling switchblades on a high tension wire"
Can this mean that his gambling with his life by using drugs or maybe he just lives his live like he doesn`t care if he dies.
"I don`t have any scars only dormant wounds that crack like fault lines"
He didn`t get any tissue damage in the 'Accident' but he has emotional trauma and they are evolving and getting worse.
"I only have five thoughts anymore and four of them are of you"
Again he cant stop thinking about her.It occupies his mind that it feels like it is on fire.The 5th one is an idea(obsession he has)I dont think its about suicide.Its an Idea to exhume her grave as you will see in the next song Cemetery road #5.Then some eerie laughter plays in the background personifying his descent into a dark place in his mind.Then he explains his idea ;
"body bursts and leak like a trash bag into the gutter and the grave"
This isnt suicide,he wants to exhume his lover grave ,put the rotting remains in a trash bag and through it in a place that contains water(watery grave).This can also resemble his exhaustion of plotting to long.
