Is this song about drugs or drug addiction?

Young Blood from Passive Me, Aggressive You is a heavily synth driven pop tune that debuted at #1 on the New Zealand Singles Chart and won the APRA Silver Scroll in 2010. The song contains a nostalgic feel that combines both the excitement of young love with the sadness of its inevitable end.
While this song is ostensibly about young love, there is the possibility that it is personifying drugs and a relationship with drug addiction. If so, it would be far from the first time an artist has used love and relationships as a euphemism to drugs. For example, The Weeknd does this in his song Can’t Feel My Face . In fact, this theme has become so popular that Chance the Rapper has actually inverted it in his song Same Drugs . Chance uses drugs to refer to common interests and activities between him and a girl from his youth.
