I believe this song could very well be about a drug addiction.
Addiction IS a disease. SO when he says
"I heard the news baby, all about your disease , ...
You may have all you want , but I have something you need"
"I been to the edge, an' there I stood an' looked down
You know I lost a lot of friends there baby, I got no time to mess around "
Which to mean reminds me of the friends he had lost to drugs, and he had been there with them, and NOW he goes back and sees this girl , and I let her know Ive been there and done that, and I Cant do it any more.
Mmmm, so if you want it got to bleed for it baby "
The bleeding part could be used for a drug reference. The drugs that put you on the streets generally are used through a syringe. When you do drugs through a syringe you have to pull back blood.
or
If the song is about sex, then it could refer to losing her virginity.
I am not really SURE if this is what this song is about, this is just MY take on it. I have been at these points in life , so that is how I relate this song to such things.
NEVERTHELESS! Its a great song, definitely one of my favorite VH songs.
I seen the DriveBy Truckers perform this song in Tampa last night, and that is where I started thinking about it.
Happy New Year!
