Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Last stop's the bullet train
Need time to feel it out
This time I'll make her scream
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Lay down and take it in
Lean back and breathe me out
Hell yeah, do that again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Last stop's the bullet train
Need time to feel it out
This time I'll make her scream
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Lay down and take me in
Lean back and breathe me out
Hell yeah, do that again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to rock it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to rock it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like you wanna do
Me lying there over you
Lay down and take it in
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Take time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Just give me all or nothing
Need time to feel it out
This time I'll make her scream
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Lay down and take it in
Lean back and breathe me out
Hell yeah, do that again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it go
Last stop's the bullet train
Need time to feel it out
This time I'll make her scream
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Lay down and take me in
Lean back and breathe me out
Hell yeah, do that again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to rock it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Give me, give me some more
Just like the Interstate
Need time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Need time to rock it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like you wanna do
Me lying there over you
Lay down and take it in
So what do I do right now?
Give it up and let it out
Just like the Interstate
Take time to ride it out
Not going back again
So what do I do right now?
Just give me all or nothing

@[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.

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.
Punchline

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
I must find and listen to this song.
