Lyrics
Blinded by 10,000 lights
Feeling overwhelmed or captivated by a dazzling display of lights.
Feeling like
Expressing a state of emotion or sensation.
There ain't no coming down
Emphasizing that the intense experience won't fade away easily.
Ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
-When the music gets in my mind
The impact of music on the artist's thoughts.
I be feeling like
Reiteration of the lasting effect of music on the artist's mood.
There ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
-There's a hole in my heart so I put it in my pocket
Metaphorically describing emotional vulnerability.
Used to hang it on my sleeve but thought that I would drop it
Choosing to hide emotions rather than displaying them openly.
But I will take it out for you
Willingness to share personal struggles with someone.
Show you all the damage, all the scar tissue
Offering a glimpse into the emotional scars and experiences.
And I will sing you all my songs
Commitment to share one's creative output and expression.
Work until I drop or till the mic turns off
Dedication to work relentlessly in pursuit of artistic goals.
That's the sort of thing I do
Describing the artist's persistent work ethic.
Working on a dream until my face turns blue
Working tirelessly towards a dream, even to the point of exhaustion.
I hope this doesn't come off as greedy
Expressing concern about how ambitions might be perceived.
I hope you understand what I mean
Hoping for understanding regarding personal aspirations.
But when music is the dream that I'm chasing
Stating that music is the primary dream being pursued.
I want the Superbowl, Madison Square, The Point, Wembley
Desiring to achieve success in iconic venues and events.
Sell 'em all out, I want everything and be
-Blinded by 10,000 lights
Reiteration of the overwhelming feeling induced by lights.
Feeling like
-There ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
Reaffirming the lasting impact of music on emotions.
Ain't no coming down
-And when the music gets in my mind
-I be feeling like
Emphasizing the enduring nature of the emotional experience.
There ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
-Ain't no coming down
Repetition of the emotional impact of music and lights.

Imagining waving to loved ones from a stage of achievement.
Can you see me? Can you see me?

Every single record 'bout number in the crowd singing
