This track delves into addiction, control, and the destructive force it can bring out in relationships. It starts off by telling us about someone who needs drugs to numb the pain, even if it is just for a moment of a temporary escape. Then they can be enveloped into the oroboros cycle of needing drugs to numb the pain, but after the effects wear off and withdrawals hit, they feel a need to feed the addiction again; They believe it's something that they can control. The name itself is a reference to the fact that their drugged state gives them a higher sense of power. They believe they've got dominance and complete control of their lives; It's a sort of drunken-on-power sort of metaphor.
