| To me this song is referring to supressed working class people working hard for rich factory owners. | |

| Anyone else get a Gang of Four vibe from this song? Also, I'm pretty sure it's "Come on out tonight, come and see the SIGHT" not SIDE. | |

| Yep, it seems pretty clear it's about oppressed workers who are forced by circumstances to slave away at night, while others are out living a life, having fun, falling in love, etc. "Pull a sentence from your lips to keep them quiet... what they want to hear" appears to refer to some type of manager saying something he doesn't mean to keep the workers momentarily content. Y'know... something like keep working really hard and you'll get a bonus some day. And then "Come on out tonight, come and see the side... Of the ones you love and the ones in love" seems to be imploring the workers to either spend more time with their loved ones OR more likely to live their lives more like those people they are jealous of... "the ones in love". I don't really get the "keep with me" bit. I'd guess it means to "stick with" trying to live the life you want to live and maybe also to keep with yourself (i.e. believe in yourself). Great song. The band reminds me of Interpol. 1 | |

| Great song, it has a industrial revolution feel to its lyrics, or maybe like Bloody Sunday(not the U2 song) | |
