A boy who never learned his own way through life, maybe he never had any dignity, seeing the pretty woman you can buy, but always getting cheated or abused?
'the scalpel dives into the skin Good doctors never leave a scar No proof again' Getting lured by whores and exploited by organ donors who leave no sign of the wrong done? pretty weird but I wouldn't put it past Live, damn diverse band if you ask me.
'where did I go wrong? I never needed this before I need a woman to help me feel' a real emotional need, maybe the Buddhist or Hindu culture's belief that a man is only a man once he's been with a woman (actually, almost any culture's belief).
Trying to buy something that can't be bought and getting hurt in the end.
Alot of the other lyrics and peices of the chorus refer to the way you can have an entire world inside your head, a dream 'like a world tattoo' that has nothing or very little to do with reality, so you keep making moves that are foolish and unenlightened.
Somewhat Biblical, 'losing rib' , Adam's body as used to create Eve, perhaps he puts a part of him into the woman (he actually does get her) or symbolically, and afterwards he realizes 'boy loses rib as he's summoned to the mud Flat on his back Cryin' where did I go wrong?' that it isn't really what he wanted, it's false it's empty it's without real meaning or EMOTION, which he seems to need so much from his attempts to get a 'woman', which may be symbolic for the feminine side of a person.
God I'm long-wined. Oh well, it's probably because no one here really listens to me besides my boyfriend and my 12-year-old brother.

Enough once again of the gloom......
