i think its about both drugs and relationships.
the first verse is about someone using drugs to escape from things:
"ill recover in an empty room, in remission from a real mood', ie escaping from his real mood (miserable/ depressed) to summat better.
then, "why cant we hide? our secret lives" someone close to hiim finds out about his drug usage
"you hide your scars so well"
