Tilling my own grave to keep me level, jam another dragon down the hole
Digging to the rhythm and the echo of a solitary siren
One that pushes me along and leaves me
So desperate and ravenous, so weak and powerless over you
Someone feed the monkey while I dig in search of China
White as Dracula as I approach the bottom
Desperate and ravenous, so weak and powerless over you
Little angel go away, come again some other day
The devil has my ear today, I'll never hear a word you say
He promised I would find a little solace and some peace of mind
Whatever, just as long as I don't feel
So desperate and ravenous, so weak and powerless
Desperate and ravenous, so weak and powerless over you, over you

In looking at the lyrics and my personal opinion (also I could have sworn I saw this written somewhere) it's about materialism and the destructive effects it has on people as they try to fill the hole

The song is a about drug addiction and how people wether it's him or someone is weak and powerless over it. Hence the China White reference!

it's pretty obvious that the song is about opiates, and probably just heroin in particular. whoever caught the china white, good call. this is very obviously NOT about alcohol.

It looks like they slyly slipped the phrase China White into the lyrics. We all know what that means...
