| I seem to recall hearing a clip of Pete saying that although he wrote it, Roger made it his song in the way he sung it. | |

| I agree sort of with brothergrims, its a teenager saying how adults dont know what its like to be young and they underestimate him, they judge him too quickly. | |

| I don't believe he's gay. Bullshit. This song is sad, I don't like to listen to it that much, but it's still a good song. | |

| More to add... If you wanna hear how a guitar should be played listen to this song, it's fuckin amazing. Too bad it doesn't get more respect in that area. Some of the best playing I've ever heard, I've looked at tabs and thought I could duplicate it, no chance. | |

| My thougts are, Its a teen thing, stuggle of the inner man to get out and the child to be lashed in. Its all really ugly actually. | |

| no, i think youre on the right track. all ive ever heard pete say was something about how this song isnt about just him and his eyes, that its more of a europe-wide statement. | |

| Ever played to an image too much that you didn't know who you were anymore? That is what it's about. Any secret that the songwriter is keeping could be transposed onto the meaning of the tune. | |
