Now while this is a general, standard love song about the girl a guy loves, I found something that might give some deeper meaning. Since Saxon are British, a bit of public perception is that northern girls generally seem to act a bit more like average guys, in terms of being more carefree than their southern counterparts. There are exceptions, but most northern girls tend to be more forthcoming with banter, are harder drinkers, and maintain more relaxed attitudes to casual sex. Some stating that northern women are more calm, and bitchy in the "Ice Queen" way. So that's what...

The track here expresses the feelings of betrayal and disappointment in a relationship where one person gave their love to someone, but only received empty promises in return. They realized that despite giving multiple chances and ignored the signs, the other person took their love for granted. Leaving them feeling lonely and deceived, they decide to leave the toxic relationship knowing that trying to make it work would be futile. Ultimately, it's all about leaving a loveless relationship, where your partner is only with you for what you have, never giving affection back.

The song is about a breakup. “Apartment” is about their “apart-ment”.

This one is a fairly standard track about the feelings of longing and anticipating for someone special. The protagonist in the song has to leave on long trips, mad at highway traffic jams, and yearns to be home with the one they love. It's a good portrayal of one's intense longing for a reunion and their eagerness for the night to come, and the work is done; They can come home now from a long day's work to their special one.

The song talks about girls who may seem innocent on the surface but are actually rebellious and daring behind closed doors. They like the feelings of defiance and have a desire to break free from expectations, with the girl in the track challenging the looks others have of her being an angel. It captures the rebel inside anyone who feels oppressed by having to be the perfect version everyone wants or expects.

Well, the lyrics of the song are quite telling a storyline about it's writer. To my point of view this song it's about destiny(meant to be a start).

So Nasty C doesn't make it...only if he can do what he grew up doing at last his dreams came True. He suggest not to be the best but perfectly good when it comes to music.

"black tongue tied Round the roses"

This is a fundamentally Goth fashion reference. It's obscure/archaic (as Goth itself can often be), but "tongue" can refer to a broad strip of fabric used to wrap around and bind. ["Her hair pulled back in a ponytail held by a tongue of blue ribbon" for instance.] If it has laces/cord as a double outer binding over the ribbon of fabric, this even more resembles how a shoe tongue looks and works, so drawing the analogy by functionality works.

"Toy diamond ring stuck on her finger" can also refer to the quirky and inventive devices (necessarily cheap because of low discretionary income) Goth girls might use to fancy up their look.
"With a noose she can hang from the sun" sort of sounds like the fascination with death and suicide taken to extremes, with extremes of looking for fresh and quirky was to express an overly dramatic image. Very Goth.
I'm just going to say there is so much Goth imagery and reference probabilities (if you're familiar enough with these kinds of girls) and even Goth styled expression that I think one's mind should be looking for that flavor of interpretation throughout the song.
Lots of thoughts on here about this song being about something other than drug running. It's not. It's about drug running. Though I appreciate how people can make it relevant to their own experience - all music should be that way.

That said, I'm posting because I didn't see anyone mention the other fairly relevant part that clues you into the fact that it's not just about drug running, but specifically about young men who die while drug running - November 2nd is All Souls Day. That's the whole point. The speaker in the song is dead (Wyclef even says it at the start - "she gets that message you ain't comin' back"). The speaker will be gone for good this time, until November.
I sometimes get stuck in a certain song from an artist. Recently I found this song and my favorite song by him. It’s beautiful…the music, lyrics, story, even though I don’t know what it means. I think, like other that it’s a bout a young woman who needs or is looking for something but nit sure. “He” is and will be there for her but respects the fact that she is a “ballerina” spinning in some direction but who know.

This song exists as a jab of critics of both Saxon and other bands, detailing what they aren't and who they are. They aren't devil worshipers, demanding your souls, or in it for fame and money, they just wanna rock. The guys reject conformity, censorship, hypocrisy, and control, emphasizing their sole purpose of rocking out and having fun. They challenge authority, stereotypes, and restrictions while asserting their independence and passion for their craft.
