This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
You've just been bitten once again
And I've been infected by your pain
Don't lose the soap Next time we have another bloodbath
Remember that it's just as red as the blood itself
Miss Brown, your blood tastes oh so great
You know I'd like to excavate
Every single thing alive or dead
To get inside your walls of red
I'm just a sucker for your love
Red liquid sent from up above
Out of your veins into my mouth And back again
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I'm just a sucker for your love
Red venom delivered from above
Out of your veins into my mouth And back again
Now, there are days we live on each other's blood
All night and into the day
When we're in our 300's Lets hope the fun will stay
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I stumbled on the place where I found you
Every day since the day The holes in your neck they flow, flow, and flow And so did you
We passed her time And I'm a fool
All day we lie asleep In a double coffin
And as long as we can keep it this good We'll never stop rotting
Miss Brown, your blood tastes oh so great
You know I'd like to excavate
Every little thing alive or dead
To get inside your walls of red
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I stumbled on the place where I found you
Every day since the day The holes in your neck they flow and flow and flow And so did you
And I've been infected by your pain
Don't lose the soap Next time we have another bloodbath
Remember that it's just as red as the blood itself
Miss Brown, your blood tastes oh so great
You know I'd like to excavate
Every single thing alive or dead
To get inside your walls of red
I'm just a sucker for your love
Red liquid sent from up above
Out of your veins into my mouth And back again
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I'm just a sucker for your love
Red venom delivered from above
Out of your veins into my mouth And back again
Now, there are days we live on each other's blood
All night and into the day
When we're in our 300's Lets hope the fun will stay
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I stumbled on the place where I found you
Every day since the day The holes in your neck they flow, flow, and flow And so did you
We passed her time And I'm a fool
All day we lie asleep In a double coffin
And as long as we can keep it this good We'll never stop rotting
Miss Brown, your blood tastes oh so great
You know I'd like to excavate
Every little thing alive or dead
To get inside your walls of red
Far far away out to another world
Where love is free And blood seeps from the necks of girls
I stumbled on the place where I found you
Every day since the day The holes in your neck they flow and flow and flow And so did you

@[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.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
