It sounds like this song is about two people who are in a relationship in which they pretend everything is great between them, when they really have problems they are ignoring. And he can see it all happening, but can't do anything about it.
"You’ve got your Hell’s teeth smiling at you."
This line explains that the other person knows there's a problem, but chooses to ignore it.
"It keeps your brain safe as it all eats at your face."
Ignoring the problems helps her feel better about the situaion, but it destroys who she is inside
"...we’ll ‘blur it out’ and no one ever will know."
He says they will ignore it together, and pretend nothing is wrong between them
"Pump in the laughter of dead-audience applause and TEENAGE RAPE candidates. I think we got ourselves a ‘real hit.’ "
They keep pretending, and hope they will be able to stay together forever
"Don’t we wish that we had something more than hate amber panic and panic morbid panic hate and morbid panic"
If they just loved each other right, they'd have never had to pretend in the first place and risk each other
"This is my beautiful show and everything is shot in slo-motion."
He realises that they ignore everything, and is well aware of what's happening but feels he can't do anything about the way things are
