“Bloodstream” follows a teenager getting disillusioned with the world around him by experiencing the bad sides of fame.
It was left off the original teaser of photos for The Chainsmokers' debut LP, Memories…Do Not Open, but was quickly added after the original posts were deleted and new versions su...
[Verse 1]
I've been drunk three times this week
Spent all my money on a fleeting moment
I thought I-I-I-I-I-I can shake this off
Now I-I-I-I-I-I can't make this stop
Yeah, things were sweet three months ago
When I was living how I wanna on my own
And I thought I-I-I-I-I-I don't need that much
I guess I-I-I-I-I-I was out of touch
[Chorus]
I'm fucked up, I'm faded
I'm so complicated
Those things that I said
They were so overrated
But I-I-I-I-I-I, yeah, I meant it
Oh yeah, I-I-I-I-I-I, really fucking meant it
Yeah, I meant it
[Verse 2]
I gave up three times this week
Went through those feelings
Like I wasn't worth nothing
I thought I-I-I-I-I-I can shake this off
No, I-I-I-I-I-I can't be this soft
[Chorus]
I'm fucked up, I'm faded
I'm so complicated
Those things that I said
They were so overrated
But I-I-I-I-I-I, yeah, I meant it
Oh yeah, I-I-I-I-I-I, really fucking meant it
Yeah, I meant it
[Middle 8]
I'm fucked up, I'm faded
I'm so complicated
Those things that I said
They were so overrated
But I-I-I-I-I, yeah, I meant it
Oh yeah, I-I-I-I-I, really fucking meant it
[Chorus]
Yeah, I meant it
Yeah, I meant it
Yeah, I meant it
Yeah, I meant it
Yeah, I, I, I, really fucking meant it

In a Twitter Q&A with their followers, The Chainsmokers mentioned “Bloodstream” as their current favourite song from their debut album Memories…Do Not Open.
In the year that we spent writing this album, a lot changed. We experienced fame for the first time. It wasn’t what we expected. After years of being relatively unknown, all of a sudden people were commenting on everything we did from what we wore to what we tweeted. The feeling of being taken out o...
As the first verse shows, the song is a reference to alcohol and so is its title, because alcohol flows through the bloodstream. The inspiration for those is the drunk state of mind in the night the song was created.
