I believe the song is comparing, The mind of a bi-polar person, to an atomic bomb on a timer. basically when a person finally snaps the consequences are that of the atomic bomb as they uncontrollably destroy the world around them.
This is why there are both strong references to the atomic bomb and bi-polar person. They are pointing out the the atomic bomb was kinda a bad idea , as well as relating it to a bi-polar person and the loss of control that occurs when they go off. all hell breaks loose.
