Jim was quite the character, obsessed with death as he was for reasons simply of seeking out the truth, but as I read this it can be about many types of transitions, regarding drug use to escape the monotony of daily life, the boredom of having already done it all or committing suicide. Daily life, nothing left to live for, relationships that don't pan out or whatever. With Jim it was always about the other side. He and Pam used to scare each other by overdosing - their "recreational" activity. Jim would creep around the outside of their home behind the Country Store in Laurel Canyon ( Where the creatures meet in "Love Street" ) just to scare her! A couple made for each other!
