Run the tap 'til it's clear

Drift off on the floor
Drifting off, possibly in a state of detachment.
I drag you to the shore
Metaphorically pulling someone out of a difficult situation.
Sweating through the heat
Experiencing intense pressure or stress.
You're gonna drown in your sleep
Feeling overwhelmed to the point of suffocation or being consumed by problems.
For sure, wake up and start a big fire
Starting a significant conflict or trouble in a confined living space.
In our one room apartment
Living in a small, single-room living area.
But I'm too tired
Feeling too exhausted to engage in a competition or argument.
To have a pissing contest
Not having the energy or willingness to engage in a pointless dispute.
All the bad dreams that you hide
Unpleasant or distressing dreams that are concealed.
Show me yours, I'll show you mine
Offering to share one's own hidden troubles in exchange for seeing someone else's.
Call me when you land
Asking for contact upon arrival after a journey.
I'll drive around again
Planning to drive around once more.
One hand on the wheel
One hand on the steering wheel while the other is involved with something else, possibly symbolic of divided attention.
One in your mouth
Engaging in an intimate act while driving.
Turn me on and turn me down
Turning someone on and off intermittently or inconsistently.
Baby, you're a vampire
Comparing someone to a vampire, possibly referencing their draining or demanding nature.
You want blood and I promised
Expressing a commitment to provide something vital, akin to blood, to the other person.
I'm a bad liar
Admitting to being untruthful or deceptive.
With a savior complex
Identifying oneself as having a tendency to try to rescue or save others, possibly at personal cost.
All the skeletons you hide
Acknowledging the hidden or undisclosed problems or secrets of the other person.
Show me yours, and I'll show you mine
Offering reciprocity in sharing concealed troubles in exchange for learning about the other person's.
All the bad dreams that you hide
Reiteration of earlier mention of concealed distressing dreams.
Show me yours
Repetition of the offer to reveal hidden troubles in exchange for the other person's.
