@nikkopotamus This is pretty much how I read it: A ong-ago love that lingers in his heart and that distracts him. In his dustraction, he runs a light. A couple of later lines fit my theme, and a bunch don't. Hey, that's poetry! And really, who understands poetry?

@nikkopotamus This is pretty much how I read it: A ong-ago love that lingers in his heart and that distracts him. In his distraction/rumination/daydreaming of the past, he runs a light. Maybe the papers lying = the present moment of real life is meaningless ehrn you're hooked by the past. A couple of later lines fit my theme, and a bunch don't. Hey, that's poetry! And really, who understands poetry? We bring to art what fits our personal stories.

I'm just going on a whim here, but I think it's about a girl he used to love, she might be dead or alive, and the thought of her won't "fade."
The race might be time trying to take those feelings away from him but he'll always be "on her side."
Those supermen could be other men trying to woo her away and just getting in the way.
Anyway, those are my thoughts. Amazing song by the Furs. Love their stuff.
