We could also say it's about Tiger Woods. Or MP. Or any person that becomes idolized and then demonized when he/she fucks up.


We could say that.  But Batman is far cooler.

Batman is way cooler than mostly everything.

I thought the song was JP's "Never Enough" about the fans.

Well, sort of, yeah, but it has a much different tone to it.  The emphasis isn't so much on the fans as it is on the celebrity/musician, of just, "if you live in the spotlight, this is one of the realities that comes along with it."

So it's JP's "Limelight"?

At this pace we'll be able to mix our own DT Super-Hero Concept Album.

Yeah, except it's considerably worse.

... and about Batman...
Yes, these are the two primary differences between Limelight and Build Me Up, Break Me Down. The latter is not as awesome as the former and the latter is about Batman.

No, I think it's JP's Build Me Up, Break Me Down.  ;)  But I don't think loose comparisons to Never Enough or Limelight are too far off the mark.
