You're close. It alternates. The first chorus says "Enter Venus", the goddess of love and beauty. The second chorus says, "as you intervene us", since the best friend of the speaker AND boyfriend of the woman mentioned in the song walks in on the speaker and woman. The last one says "as you intravenous", since it follows from the line "he cleaned up a needle to fly and told me goodbye". The betrayed boyfriend/best friend does drugs to "cure heartache" and ends up overdosing.

The song itself is a story. It starts with the speaker and his best friend out together. The best friend's girlfriend comes in, and the speaker falls in love/lust with her. The woman and the speaker have an affair and they get caught. A "seer" is someone who can see things before they happen. The speaker knew that they would be caught by the boyfriend/best friend and that he would take it extremely hard, leading to his heartbreak and/or eventual suicide.
I think intervene us makes more sense.. the song to me is clearly about a man walking in on his friend having an affair with his girl. Although what RoleMartyrX says makes sense, even though I can't distinguish between the intervene us lines, they all sound like "intervene us" to me. But won't be the first time I've been wrong :)

I did make a mistake I'm fairly certain about.. the line "Something is out of place
In her driveway
We know it speaks of goodnight"

should be "you know it's me, so goodnight.".

I agree pretty much 100% with the rest of what RoleMartyrX said.
By far and away my favorite song on the new album.
Shouldn't it be
Enter Venus? Makes more sense to me..
One of my favorite songs on the new album.

This song is insanely amazing.
