This song equates drug addiction to being in a toxic and unhealthy relationship.
As a fan of early industrial music, I suggested incorporating weird noises into the song.
My bandmate (we're a duo) was horrified by this concept at first, having no frame of reference since he had never heard artists like Nurse with Wound or Einsturzede Neubauten before... until he heard the results.

Weird noises in order of appearance:
0:00: two halves of a beer can being smashed against each other
0:30: battery powered hedge trimmer
0:48: sawzall
2:14: rocks being dropped on a piece of sheet metal (same for 2:37) (in place of crash symbols)
3:56: cutting back and forth with a steak knife through an empty plastic frozen OJ container
4:16 folding a black plastic contractor bag in my hands
My bandmate took pics while I was recording these fucked-up noises:
