| This is about the more 'colourful' areas of Liverpool and no matter what the outside view of them is they are still part of this beautiful city's wonderful vibrant character... | |

| I think that what Tommy is saying in here, is basically, there's two sides to every story, that what someone thinks of as ugly, someone else thinks is beautiful, and that even though society (I think that's what he's getting at) is dysfunctional, it can be beautiful. What does everyone else think? | |

| Yeah, it's about any rough and tumble inner city area - I live in one that's actually not nearly as bad as some people think - Longsight, Manchester, if anyone knows it! Outsiders may think that everyone there's lowlife, but it's not true. Anyone out there from Brighton? I used to know Whitehawk and Moulsecoomb estates, as rough as they come, and yet some really great people as well. Respect to all that live in places society treats as rubbish tips, and yet still live with dignity. | |

| i would have to agree with 'nutty dolphin' but i never really thought that deep into the meaning before.. it always seemed like 'yea, it's space, and there must be soem meaning to it, and it shouldn't be too hard to figure out' but even more, it was like 'damn these lyrics are fucked up, i can't think about this too hard..' | |
