OMG! Has history really become lost? Has anyone bothered to look at when the song was written and released? Ummm, let's see, what else was going on in the world at the time. Come here, Touch me, Kiss me, Touch Me, Now, Touch me. The song can be generalized to death in general, however, the song was specifically written about the long forgotten (in America) AIDS. Flies on the Windscreen was meant to describe the horrible things we witnessed people going through, Death in the gay community was living driving through the country and bugs splatting on the windshield. The chorus of Come Here, Touch me, Kiss me, Touch me, Now, Touch Me was used to describe the intent of lust over riding the death around us and men still practicing unsafe sex while watching death, and because of the lack of treatment and money being spent at the time were considered, 'lambs being slaughtered' as the meek, gay community were being slaughtered by the lack of awareness and treatment. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!

@hoopee Damn, you're so right! Thank you for sharing this, I'm kinda dumb on reading behind the meaning of the songs (well, I'm still learning english, so I have an apology to use lol). Your comment should be on top.
