"Can’t get no job, can you spare a dime?
Just one more hit, and I’ll be fine
I swear to God, this’ll be my one last time!"
The narrorator left his home or maybe was kicked out. He doesn't have a job and needs the cash to subdue his addiction. He is asking strangers for the money(since he doesn't have the job)
The chorus explains that the person won't be able to escape this addiction and its going to kill him.
I never once thought, I’d ever be caught!
Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks!
When you are addicted to drugs you can be extremely paranoid. He was basically planning every step before he took it but he was caught.
His friends found out and confronted him
"Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down"
Saying you are burying your own grave..
... but he snapped back and so his friends abandoned him or he left them. (You can decide)
I left my best friends, or did they just leave me?
You could compare him to the leaf. The leaf is on the tree filled with life but eventually starts dying and falls away to the ground.
I think this song is about a drug addiction...
