When you read the history of the street 40 Mark Strasse, the song's meaning becomes obvious. I agree with aerogingh's interpretation explaining how the songwriter feels the need to save the girl in the song. He's ignoring what everyone says about her being trash, and trying to prove to her that someone still cares for her. He's trying to convince her she doesn't have to trow her life away. The song is written about a very sad subject, and although you get the feeling he might be failing to change the girl's mind about her future, it still manages to be very romantic.
