I always thought this song was someone dealing with a friend or a lover who was in the hospital and dealing witht the grief of that. The first 3 stanzas are a sort of denial of what has actually happened to the friend and the speaker is choosing to focus on trivial things in life. By the last stanza the speaker has a complete break down and come to face the fact that her friend has od'd.
