  • Dj Cre4tivethought from Santa CruzThe lyrics are just me reaching out to the people who generally live in the U.S.A. It was meant to get attention. It was my first song ever. If you have any questions about what I am trying to express. It's mainly me as a single person in my apartment singing to you the listeners. -Thank you
  • Darren Mulvaney from California, U.s.a."Hi, I'm Darren Mathieu Mulvaney creator of the song "Blinding Lights". I wanted to thank all my fans for helping it get this far. I never got paid a cent for my hard work in making this song and at the time it was an investment. It was taken from me illegally along with "Dancing In the Flames", and "X.O. Timeless". If you want to know what the lyrics mean you can ask me. Many of the lyrics I wrote have double or more meanings metaphorically or literally.
