Springsteen wrote this and ' in response. According to Springsteen, the song came about from going through a rhyming dictionary in search of appropriate words. The first line of the song, 'Madman drummers, bummers, and Indians in the summers with a teenage diplomat' is autobiographical—'Madman drummers' is a reference to drummer, known as 'Mad Man' (later changed to 'Mad Dog'); 'Indians in the summer' refers to the name of Springsteen's old Little League team; 'teenage diplomat' refers to himself.

The Voices - Blinded by Light Experimental Avant-Garde A Cappella Lyrics: There's a strange desire that comes to my mind, it burns like a fire and it makes me blind. I cannot see ('cause I am) I am blinded by light. It feels like I'm floating through the skies towards the sun. It feels like I'm flying at the speed of light.

Be aware of the sun that burns your frail skin, see as it evaporates, under the scorching rays. No escape, your flesh is melting, you can't run, you have no legs; the only thing you see is a black flame, combusting, consuming your brain! At the end of it all there is something I don't get, and I had this desire long gone from my mind; there's no more any fire but I am still blind. Just voice, no vocal effects other than reverb. This song is the fourth track of the upcoming album that will soon be released by Masked Dead Records. The Voices is an experimental one-man project that tries to uncover all the potential of human voice by doing weird songs in which to put all the available vocal techniques (and creating some new ones if needed!). This second album aims to develop the ethnic/shamanic influence introduced with 'A Glimpse into the Absurd' (EP - Masked Dead Records - 2017) mixing it with a wide variety of other influences, improvisation and the most weird ideas that came to my mind.

In this song there is a Rock/Metal ballad style base with influences from Black and Death Metal, with a smooth melodic part more Blues/Jazz oriented.
