I think the first two verses describe a gig. Maybe this guy thinks he is a rockstar or something...

"Standing in the darkness Waiting for the light" The guy is waiting in backstage for the gig to begin.

"Random blinding flashes Aiming at the stage" People taking photographs

"Intro tape begins to roll Igniting sonic rage" Intro tape starts, audience begins to cheer and band starts.
