Great song that deserves a comment even though I'm not at all sure what it's about!
Many of Stuart Adamson's early lyrics were concerned with the possibilities of nuclear apocalypse which often seemed very real to those of us who were young back then, so I am guessing this lyric may have something to do with Cold War fears paralysing people, and the last verse perhaps urging the listener not to let this stuff stop them from living?
