@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Time went by so quickly
You were only seventeen
When you left you took a part
I just want to let you know
That since the time when you went away, it seems the days all faded to night
But you'll be alright I know it
'Cause I've got an angel watching me
Time went by so quickly
You were only seventeen
When you left you took a part of me
We took so much for granted
Can you hear me, can you see?
Something's making me believe
I just want to let you know
That since the time when you went away, it seems the days all faded to night
But you'll be alright I know it
'Cause I've got an angel watching me
Since the time when you went away, it seems the days all faded to night
But you'll be alright I know it
'Cause I've got an angel watching me
Give me faith, give me hope
Give me faith, give me hope
I've been searching for
Truth and lies behind the door
You found
Do keep your name?
Is it all the same in your blue eyes?
I just want to let you know
That since the time when you went away, it seems the days all faded to night
But you'll be alright I know it
'Cause I've got an angel watching me
Since the time when you went away, it seems the days all faded to night

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
