The Cloak Lyrics

It seems to me the song is about someone who has gone through something, possibly abuse, and struggles with it on a daily basis. They try to block it out and ignore the course they are going to have to take to have to get through it.

Instead they have found a coping mechanism, probably drugs. Whether it be drug use or some form of other abuse, it seems that whatever it is it's made a way in to their lives and it's stealing their joy and happiness.

An illusion of peacefulness that shuts down their senses. Greying out the colorful world around them.
