| U2 – Running To Stand Still Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is definately about drug addiction Bono came from an area called cedarwood which is in ballymun(well now its addressed glasnevin). in the 1980's dublin saw a flood of herion through out the city and many people where manipulated by drug pushers and fell into this addiction. one of the badly hit areas of dublin in the 1980's was ballymun. I believe this song is not just about herion addiction it is about Bonos acctual experience living so close to these people and how they lived.its a song about a community torn by drugs. Ballymun Towers and the ballymun area is now under redevelopment and there are only 3 towers left of the seven and soon will be none | |
