This song to me seems like a person stuck in a dead relationship. She dreams of someone loving her. She is so beaten down, hence "the creature in my bloodstream chews me up." She craves love so desperately and she is so depressed, it seems as if all she wants to do is to return to her dreams to "feel something" but in her waking hours she is numb, dead inside. She wants passion and to be cherished yet the only place she is able to get it is in her dreams. So sad but I can completely relate.
