"run desire run
sexual being run him like a blade"
Maynard is not implicitly drawing from personal experience, its intentionally ambiguous. Regardless it does not matter, he is speaking on general concepts of metaphysical sexuality of women, ya know humans n such blah blah. He states "sexual being" referencing the common and somewhat scientific explanation of human beings, in this case, the woman is letting her desire 'run her life, guiding her, instead of ya know her heart etc., "run him like a blade" is a metaphor for her sexual desires, aka, running herself physically (sexual reference) onto him but at the same time its like she is running her body thru a knife by doing this, hurting herself, signifying her shallow and purely sexually destructive ways.
"to and thru the heart etc."
She is not leading with her heart or sense of self integrity, her only motive is to "cater to the hollow" the hollow being the void in her life that comes from living life without integrity etc.
"Screamin' feed me here
Fill me up again
Temporarily
Pacify this hungerin"
Above: obviously just Maynard expounding upon the theme of sexual shallow gratification being innately temporary and fleeting. He uses the adjective pacify bc its a temp. fix, not something integrity filling.
"So grow, libido, throw
Dominoes of indiscretions down
Fallin' all around, in cycles, in
Circles, constantly consuming
Conquer and devour"
Her libido, ruling life, grows larger, and thus so does the void. Dominoes describes the pattern of self destruction that will circle upon itself like a torrent over and over, consuming her. She is devouring herself by filling the void creating by being basically a whore, put plainly
'Cause it's time to bring the fire down
Bridle all this indiscretion
Long enough to edify
And permanently fill this hollow
Maynard is saying she needs to kick her habits soon, to burn them, to finally be free. Baiscally quit being a whore and man up and kick the habit.
Maynard is no stranger to poetry and metaphors, a great writer says ALOT in very little amount of words, which is what he does.
Look guys this is what the song means:
