This song has always been a unique gem in my collection. I assume it is related to the protagonist in this album's concept, who I've heard was a friend of singer Mike Score's who ended up committing suicide. It sounds like this person is wishing he could be a better man for his lover, who sounds like she may have been troubled in some way "stand alone fighting for the cause- when that cause is yours" I'm not sure what the emphasis on being a European is, as the band was from England- maybe it's about an American who wishes he could be most anything but that! Might give him a better image of himself.
