Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the...

   I thought it was about a war; but what do I know? I know this; I thoroughly enjoy reading everyone's interpretations. When was this song written?

   I always thought it was about people that battle with drug addiction, mainly the ones who use intravenously.
   
   "How do you think I’m going to get along,
   Without you, when you’re gone
   You took me for everything that I had,
   And kicked me out on my own"......"shoot out"

    Obviously, this song is not about drugs, I have no clue were that came from but it's not. The song is about a soldier named Steve who encounters a fierce shootout. Steve kills lots of the opposing side. Hense another one bites the dust, and another one gone. In between he talks about the way he gets along with his fellow soldiers
