I think all your comments are different interpretations of Simon's thoughts while writing Black Chandelier. This is the magic of music and songwriting. We don't need or want to know what the song really means. You just have to feel the lyrics and if they make sense to you that's the most important. You can find a lot of different meanings while listening to the song and none of them will be wrong. The main goal is to feel something. No matter what you feel you feel it right. Biffy's a great band and Simon's a great songwriter. Thumb up.
