Room Lyrics

In your room
In your room
Silent man
Once again
The razor's song
The razor's song
Wear the mask
Another fave
In your room
In your room
City red
City red
Wear the mask
Wear the mask
A private hell
A secret sin
A friend of mine
Waiting for
A western man
Waiting for
New kind of glory
A view of glory
From this room

I only live here
I only live here
A fragile man
Waiting Waiting
Echoes...
I only live here
Echoes
In this room
Echoes...

Is it about someone who has done something bad in the past ("a secret sin") and they have trouble coming to terms with it ("a private hell"). As a result, they spend most of there time at home ("In your room").

Not sure about the line "The razors song".

My Interpretation

I heard in an interview with Kerr back in the 80’s that it is about a murder.

Actually, regarding "The razors song" lyric...could it actually be "The rays of sun"? All lyrics state razors song but they have made mistakes before.
