The Fly
Hi,
Peaceful Saturday to you all! Do like I just did - grab your BOY CD from the bookshelv, wipe the dust away and listen to some old U2 again - rediscover Twilight!
Damn, OK, Boy was released in 1980 so I would imagine Twilight was written in 1979. Guys were about 19 years old and wrote such masterpieces as Twilight back then!
"My teacher told my why I laugh when old men cry" line obviously is true story from Bonos childhood when his mother died. You know, it sounds unbelievable, but sometimes people laugh when they lose someone close because the stress is so high. It just happens and its impossible to control.

EDIT:
"in the shadow boy meets man"
Now I get this line! It's not about two persons, but one. His world is all black (Bono is in the shadow) because his mother has died and he becomes man and loses his childhood as a result of this tragedy.
