Lyric discussion by edge3368 

the only other thing u can cling to is that it is about addiction itself- not necessarily heroine. bono vox says we are all addicted to something. "In an interview, Bono talks about this song and how it is about a woman who lived in the Ballymena Seven Towers, an area in Dublin which is like the projects in the states. I see seven towers/but I only see one way out The drug use there is very widespread, and the one way out which he speaks of could be canning the habit, stopping the heroin, which the woman he sings about could not do."
