"Wire" is about the dangers of heroin use. U2 stayed mostly drug-free, but they had many friends who became addicted, including Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy, who died from heroin abuse in 1986. U2 bass player Adam Clayton was arrested in Ireland for marijuana possession in 1989, but the conviction was waived in lieu of a donation to charity.
