Most definately related to terrorism. "The quickest route to paradise Is a short commute to paradise And a sharp salute to paradise" Muslim extremist terrorism is based around the idea that once they have martyred themselves to kill the 'infidels' they will be sent to paradise where there are 72 virgins....waheyyy!

My interpretation which i feel quite confident about is that it is an attack on the terrorism and saying how it has affected london. "Space becomes so lonely, with these feeling of mistrust Because the monster in the cupboard has made us feel we must" This talks about how we don't speak on the trains because there is so much mistrust due to bombers.
