The song is about confronting the power of an abuser and making their terrible power to control the person 'disappear'. However as we heal, we are feeling the need to escape and return to the weakness of whom we were before. The "constant commotion" of our internal thoughts drives us to stop the healing process and escape from the pain. "You'll increase desire to wander and retire" which means that the person will use drugs or drink and then stop, but our feelings will remain leaving us nothing to do except to keep fleeing the pain until it all disappears.
