The Frights' "Drag" is a song about a toxic relationship that the singer is struggling to maintain. The lyrics convey the singer's longing for his partner's acceptance and love, while also acknowledging that their love is "bad, bad." The repetition of the line "c'mon baby won't you let me be" suggests that the singer is trying to break free from the relationship, but can't seem to let go.
The final lines of the song, "come to the mirror left, look through the mirror right / tell me what do you see / do you see what she likes? / don't tread, don't tread on me," suggest that the singer is also questioning his own identity and self-worth in the context of this relationship. He is asking himself if he is living up to his partner's expectations, and ultimately concludes with a warning not to tread on him.
Overall, the song is a powerful commentary on the difficulties of trying to maintain a relationship that is ultimately detrimental to one's mental health and self-esteem.
