Personally I think this song is about leaving a toxic, controlling relationship and refinding/reconnecting with yourself. Could be with a person or a substance.
To me the combination of the song title and lyrics make me think that way.
First off the name is "Minus". That is an indication of getting rid of something for me personally. I do not associate that word with adding something like drugs or love to your life.
"Drug me, infiltrate my neverland.
Like the floodtide drowning the shore.
Drug me, you’re all over me.
You watch my blood begin to boil."
To me the above lines describe a negative controlling relationship. Pretty much every action is described as an external force driving it. "Drug me" someone else does it to you.
Words like infiltrate and drowning are also rather negative and forcefull. Infiltration is basically unauthorized entry. Drowning is rather final and a bit suffocating.
"You watch my blood begin to boil" my blood is boiling is an expression of anger. That makes me more inclined to think the lines before that are ment in a negative way.
" I love that lullaby, start me up again.
Electric spine - open mind."
This part is about remembering the past, wanting a change, find courage and see with clarity.
"I leave you negative behind.
Watch me all in flames.
On a butterfly I ride."
This here is cutting the negative out and embracing live. Living it your way. For all to see, especially that what was holding you back.
"Inhale the light, relax for some time
The world outside stays numb tonight
Free your mind, express the forgotten
The world inside is yours tonight"
If you have ever been in a toxic relationship then you proberbly would have had a feeling that you are not allowed to be yourself, your emotions don't matter and your opinions are unwanted. To me "The world outside stays numb tonight" is a statement that the negative no longer influences what you think, feel. Your inside world is yours again.
"Please me, deliver the insane
In the chaos I find peace
Please me, remind the gods of my name
I believe there is one seat left for me ."
To me this is about that you matter and that you are allowed a place of equal importance in the world. When the negative was holding you back, the rest of the world felt like gods, beings above you. But no longer, there is a seat for you now among them.
