@[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.
Not that you remember
Maybe you locked away
Maybe we will meet again some better day
Some better life
Jonathan Fisk speaks with his first
Can't let me walk home on my own
Just like a knife down on my life
So many ways to set me right
It's such a long way home
Ooh that's how the story goes
And it's
Atom bombs some bloody razors
Atom bombs and bloody razors
Jonathan Fisk says it's a sin but he don't think twice 'cause to hell
Religion don't mean a thing
Oooh just another way to be right wing
Just like a knife down on my life
So many ways to set it right
Oh it's how it goes
That's how the story goes
It's such a long way home
Ohoooh you're too old to understand
'Cause I just wanna go home now
I just wanna go home now
Jonathan right down on my life
So many ways to set me right
Oohhh long walk home
That's how the story goes
Jonathan Fisk always a risk
Tells me he counts my teeth every night
I wanna get all back now
I wanna get em alright
I wanna turn him around yah
Oooh turn him around
Oooh ooh turn him around
Maybe you locked away
Maybe we will meet again some better day
Some better life

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
kind of sounds like an older guy, is beating up a younger one, to make him believe in the things he does...
