I posted this at U2.se too
Fragile persons is hereby warned, the following piece of text may include touching content.
We started school today, and major part of the day was about the tsunami disaster in Asia.
During the civics class this afternoon I happened to think about (as the U2-freak I am) Who's gonna ride your wild horses,and it's lyrics.
Several lyrics in the song makes me draw a parallell to tsunamis, how strange it might seem.
According to me Unicef should do a remix remix of "Horses" rather than "Sometimes...".
I know it's supposed to be a love song, but still.
You're dangerous, you don't know what you want. &
You're an accident waiting to happen
This is interpret as if the tsunami just happens, without any purpose of hitting beaches (It cannot decide where it's gonna hit, or however you express it.)
Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot samt
You're a piece of glass left there on a beach.
Possibly describes someones emotions after the tsunami has occured.
Well you tell me things
I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach.
This I guess is about getting bad news or uncomfirmed news and then just left out of reach of help and support.
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Kind speaks for itself doesn't it?
Don't turn around, don't turn around again.
Don't turn around, and don't look back.
Come on now love, don't you look back.
I can't put my finger on how to iterpret this, but kind of like not to turn around to see deceased relatives or bloody bodies etc. even though you want to go back and look for your family/friends.
Who's gonna drown in your blue sea?
Who's gonna taste your saltwater kisses?
Same as above.
So what do you think of this?
Looking at this song from a different perspective?
