i believe this song's about a boy who is bullied, cuz he's different. whomever he is it doesnt matter. dont u get it? this boy could be Jesus, harry potter, charlie brown, courtney love or morrisey himself... it could be anyone of us. we all have been bullied for being different, even if it was just once, in your school, in your family, among your friends, at work, wherever!
we all have been a boy with a thorn in our side. i dont think the mention of a "thorn" matters, its just a simple word, to show that he's different.
"Behind the hatred there lies
A murderous desire for love"
these lines show what we truly want, even if we are misunterstood or mad at someone, we just want to be accepted and loved.
that's what i understan of the song, so i think ppl who say it's about Jesus, or about gay discrimination, they're right. this song's about all of us. and it could apply to gay ppl, or kids bullied in schools, or music industry,yadayada...
i'm not gonna argue so dont go sayin my opinion is stupid cuz i dont care. this is what i get of the song and in the end it's all about feeling it. i feel it right?
