I love the multiple ways you can interpret this song. You can see it, shallowly, about sex, wade into the waters and say it's about a complicated relationship between two lovers, or, as I prefer, you can dive deeply and say it's about the relationship between two characters within one body. These characters are fighting for control. Not necessarily two personalities as if he is a schitzo, but more so that you can't decide who you are or want to be and you change for other people and distort who you are for them, and then finally deciding to take control in the end, even if sometimes you loved your "alternate person" that you were pretending to be.
I've noticed a trend in Maynard to be able to see things from an immateria* plane of

What I get from it is that this song is a direct relation with the notion of "self" and the relationship (regardless of what with) that affects the self. Whether this play is acted out with a lover, an inward spiritual trip where one is talking to the multiplaned self or even just a relationship with a drug or more specifically, ANYTHING that affects you by becoming apart of who you are. In that since, it's a surrender to the notion that these relationships are the foundation of what makes us human and alive.
*Yes, I'm referring to the one beautifully explained in Promethea. Google if you've never read as it will help anyone understand the concepts of Magick, Crowley, and is a good starting guide into the paths of shamanic vision and how mythology and archetypes define people in a much truer since than we're taught in Western schooling.
