I can't believe no one commented on this song yet! It's my favorite b-side and Kate's best in my opinion. To me, The Empty Bullring is about a man and a woman, the man seems to have pride issues. He lives his woman to go prove that he has pride and he's strong. But the woman does not care about this at all, all she wants is for him to be home and safe. I see examples of this in 'You are going to the empty bullring" usually, a sport to prove how without fear a man has, "Taking your red cloak, to regain something" he wishes to regain his dignity and pride. But that's just my interpretation.
Or it could simply be about a bull fighter trying to prove to the world he is strong, fearless and wise.
