Many drug references, both in the lyrics and video (chemical structure of bufotenin flashed, smokes the rocks). I think Dressed for Space might be code for high. I also think in this song he's been cheated on by a promiscuous and/or dishonest lover (2nd verse) and now he feels as though he's unraveling (he's made ribbon and unraveling knot by knot) so he gets high to deal with it. "I'm dressed for space now can I go?" to me implies he's high and wants to escape.
