i always understood it to be a reference to westerners oblivious attitude to global events.\n\noverall the song is about the american nations decrepit values and brainwashing of children, about how its been like this since its inception (wich i question) and how it corrupts and destroys everything it touches (wich i more or less agree with) \n\nthe sleep now in the fire is also about being oblivious to americas internal problems and not noticing the flames of self destruction that dooms us all. \n\nwe all just sleep peacefully in the hell that surrounds us, "comfortably numb"

Dylan Thomas -  author of 'Under Milk Wood'.\n\nIt is a line from a poem dedicated to his father who was dying.  The full poem is as follows...\n\n\nDo not go gentle into that good night,\nOld age should burn and rave at close of day;\nRage, rage against the dying of the light.\n\nThough wise men at their end know dark is right,\nBecause their words had forked no lightning they\nDo not go gentle into that good night.\n\nGood men, the last wave by, crying how bright\nTheir frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,\nRage, rage against the dying of the light.\n\nWild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,\nAnd learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,\nDo not go gentle into that good night.\n\nGrave men, near death, who see with blinding sight\nBlind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, \nRage, rage against the dying of the light.\n\nAnd you, my father, there on the sad height,\nCurse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.\nDo not go gentle into that good night.\nRage, rage against the dying of the light.

the title is called driven by suffering\n(good song)\n\nEvery seconds breath life \ninto a reason for dying. \nOur ignorance will only stunt \nour final will to live. \nBound and Gagged. \nI feel forced back in a losing race. \nI've been stepped on \nand passed by \nbut I have enough hope to keep fighting. \nAll of my life,\nAll of my pain. \nDriven by suffering (x2) \nEvery single choice I must make. \nDriven by suffering. (x2)

It is a song about revenge.  Revenge for getting set up in the rape case and for getting set up in the first shoting.

A girlfriend or friend that died in a plane crash.  Actually:Taylor has related different versions of what the song is about. In a BBC interview he stated that the song chronicled his experiences in mental institutions and the suicide of a friend. More recently, on the VH1 series Story Tellers, Taylor said that the song was, indeed, about Suzanne MacKenzie, a friend of his who died suddenly while he was away from home. According to that account, he had been in a deep depression after the failure of his new band "Flying Machine" to coalesce (the lyric includes a reference to "sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground"; the reference is to the name of the band rather than a fatal plane crash, as was long rumored). As he was wondering what to do with himself, he received word of MacKenzie's death, and the song explains that her death was a check for his own worries, a way of realizing the transience of life and his need to get back to his old friends. In other interviews Taylor has also indicated that a battle with drug addiction figured into the song.\n\nThe song was originally written several years before its release and was refined over time; it appears probable that all the elements referenced by Taylor over time went into the final version.

From the sourced website:\n\n"The Reflex", Duran Duran\nI, being a HUGE Duran Duran fan, can shed some light on this song. Back in the 80's when I had the word book for the album and meanings, this song simply was about a person being on stage, forgetting words and making them up as he went along. Take for instance "I'm on a ride and I want to get off/but they won't slow down around the bout, I sold the Renoir and the tv set/don't want to be around when this gets out". Hope this can shed some light that not all Duran Duran songs are about sex.
