i think you pretty right there blackwell, i don't really buy into too literal interpretations (looking at you ProudesterMonkey), but yeah this has to be about the 'troubles'. one thing i wanted to comment on is the "September... streets capsizing..." bit. I hadn't listened to this album for a while but this part had such a scary relation to 9/11 i was shocked. This is probly a good example for any of you U2 fans who think Bono is the messiah. Noel Gallagher once said of Bone "he's close to God that fucker" so you never know..
