When I first listened to this song, and read the lyrics, I always thought it was about death, and how nobody will escape it. |

IMHO, a few people here are forgetting about the second verse of this tune. No doubt, the lyrics in the first verse are about the fall of Communism, but the whole song is about the end of the Cold War, and asks where we go from here now that it's over. There's also some anger about all the fear that was ginned up, as well as the amount of nuclear weapons that currently exist as a result. |

This one is about a man who has a dream, but ends up getting caught up with a drinking habit, possibly due to some disappointments along the way, and eventually loses everything he worked for because of this, and even though he had someone teaching him how to become successful, he thought he was doing well, and completely ignored his mentor's advice.
The "Note" that's mentioned in the song might be about life itself. Even after this man is gone, life will go on, and there will be more people like him. |

*This song is actually about a man sitting in a nuclear silo having just recieved the order to push the button. He knows what he has to do and is ready to sacrifice everything for it.*
I'm a bit at a loss as to what this man is about to do. It seems like he's about to ignore the order outright. Maybe someone here can tell me if that's true. |
* This information can be up to 15 minutes delayed.
