It is definitely about dependence, perhaps chemical and definitely emotional. Chemical dependence makes sense since Toni Halliday who wrote the lyrics has been frank about her addiction and recovery.
I believe it is also about that life making you dependent on the tedious vapid party people you become surrounded by because of it. From another emotional standpoint, it can refer to a romantic relationship that insinuates itself into your life to the point where you lose your own identity. Then that person eventually becomes "the bore (or boor, depending on her meaning) you drag around like a ball and chain. I believe she changes her narrative voice throughout the song talking in third person in some places and first person address at others:
"I've come to crush your bones...mess with your head... coz it'll make you feel good" has two meanings.
It can be seen as the narrative from the drugs point of view, as if they were personified.
It is her not so subtle but playfully dark warning to anyone who would try to tie themselves to her fate through a romantic relationship. Kinda like, be careful you might get what you wish for.
