for me this song refers to addiction. the twinge referring to a needle prick. "was really just a twinge, it wasn't much. I never meant, to get lost." this symbolizes how quick and easy it is to get lost in addiction. "we'll just lay there together" symbolizing numb, euphoric rush. "countdown the hours...waiting on the twinge" symbolizing looking for/ waiting on the next hit. I know pete expresses his own lyrical intentions, but this is what this song means to me. I feel like the damned has a similar theme.
