That was really deep... seriously. But the "All the people that he sees in the night, Hold their dreams up to the light" line has always, to me, seemed like saying that their dreams are hollow; their fake, as if holding their dreams up to a light will yield (or won't) a watermark. This fits into both of y'all's theory of the rocker... they all want to be him, but those dreams either cannot happen or he's not exactly livin the high life like they think he is... Anyway, cheriokid and xim, thanks for shedding new light on this song for me!

Sounds like a Pink Floyd song. (please note, I love PF so this wasn't meant as a diss) I think this is about someone (the "joker") watching over someone else (the girl in the song) and how for now he's just WATCHING, but soon he could step into her life... Maybe she's thinking about doing something (drugs, sex, stealing, lying) and the joker is a metaphor for whatever she's thinking about doing.
