This song is clearly about a rebellious person.Someone welcoming in darkness, disillusion, loftily welcoming in destructive patterns.
The lyrics state, "you know it."
They refuse to listen to anyone, including the lyricist, someone likely close to him/her, perhaps family, friend or lover. Obviously the rebellious person has been warned numerous times and should know better anyhow, so the lyricist refuses to waste anymore breath, though it clearly bothers her.
I see the one in "troubled waters" as being swept away by an addiction, a bad relationship or bad crowd all together.
