I'm gonna go out on a limb and says it's about drug addiction. Would explain why they're being so vague on a song meant for mainstream radio.

To make my stand.
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand.


Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it?

Buy time don't lose it.

The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park.
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark.

And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Must be answered with a question mark.

I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the round-about.
I sold the radio and T.V. set
Don't want to be around when this gets out.
