the meaning of this song is almost all in the music rather than the lyrics.
the lyrics set you up with the scenario in the first stanza: they are leaving some boring place, they take a drink and hit a red light.
now the music...notice the music slows to a pace anticipating the green light. the drums are hit, signalling that the light is green. the music picks up, and they're off...into the city with not a care in the world. they are looking at all the city lights and enjoying life to its full extent.
the rest of the song i cant fully understand though. any ideas?
