Lyrics: Michael Abalos
I.
Red rain flowing in (Inside)
I hear your voice,
Echo in my mind (Mind)
II.
I've heard your voice calling out to me
I've seen you wonder but i was
Blind to see, so blind
I've packed my bag,
Solved my own riddle and go
I'm Blinded by the city lights
I'm coming back into your light
I'm coming back into your arms again (2×)
III.
I know its hard living in
Alone in a cold dark night
You've heard my voice calling out to you
You've seen I tried
So open up your heart to see
Open up your heart to me
Been hiding from the sunlight
Tried to take away the pain
Solved my own riddle and go
I've been blinded
Blinded by the city lights
(2×)
Repeat chorus (2×)
Outro
The lyrics to TIHTUS's song "Blinded" speaks of a person who has been lost in the city (or modern world) that they have been blinded to the love and warmth of someone important in their life. The opening lines, "Red rain flowing in (Inside) / I hear your voice, Echo in my mind (Mind)" sets the tone for someone who is introspective and reflective. The red rain flowing inside is a metaphor for the deep emotions that have been dormant within them, and the echo of the voice in their minds is an indication of the lingering feelings they have for someone who they have distanced themselves from.
The second stanza is the person recounting their feelings of regret and missed opportunities. They admit that the person they love has tried to reach out to them, but they were "Blind to see." The line "I've packed my bag, Solved my own riddle and go" suggests that they have been on a journey to find themselves and have come to a realization that they need to return to the embrace of the person they have been missing.
The chorus serves as the reiteration of the person's intentions to return to the love they have been missing, regardless of how blinded they were by the city lights. The final verse is the person's plea to the one they love to open their hearts and let them in, promising that they will be the source of warmth and light to their cold dark night.
Overall, the song is a plea for redemption, a song of love and remorse, and a declaration of one's journey of self-discovery, and how it has led them to the realization that they need the love of someone close to them.
