@[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.
Remember two years ago
when you broke down and cried to me
about how you couldnt be alone
how you needed me next to you
you made me promise on your tears
to never let you be without my voice inside your ears
well I found my way back
you'll never be alone again
isnt that what you want
no you'll never be alone again
I am right here with you
I know you feel me next to you
you cant shake me off, you cant shake me off, this time around
your trying hard to kill the truth
so stop plying around, stop playing around, you know your not alone
Remember when I was here
I tried to be as thick as the world
you called me out just to see
if I could be real enough
to never take your heart from you
and leave it all alone
I came back down to stay with you
even if you don't know
I know you feel me next to you
you cant shake me off, you cant shake me off, this time around
your trying hard to kill the truth
so stop plying around, stop playing around, you know your not alone
I tried my heart doesnt beat
theres no ground under my feet
I am floating over your bed now
I'll be the voice in the dark
the freezing cold in your heart
that you thought died away with me
but I'll be right next to you
you'll never be alone again
cause I'll be right next to you
you'll never be alone again
no you'll never be alone again
I am right here with you
I know you feel me next to you (so stop playing dumb)
you cant shake me off, you cant shake me off, this time around
your trying hard to kill the truth (I am right here with you)
so stop plying around, stop playing around, you know your not alone
I know you feel me next to you
when you broke down and cried to me
about how you couldnt be alone
how you needed me next to you
you made me promise on your tears
to never let you be without my voice inside your ears
well I found my way back
you'll never be alone again
isnt that what you want
no you'll never be alone again
I am right here with you
I know you feel me next to you
you cant shake me off, you cant shake me off, this time around
your trying hard to kill the truth
so stop plying around, stop playing around, you know your not alone
Remember when I was here
I tried to be as thick as the world
you called me out just to see
if I could be real enough
to never take your heart from you

your trying hard to kill the truth (I am right here with you)
so stop plying around, stop playing around, you know your not alone
I know you feel me next to you

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.

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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
It's also on the Masters of Horror two disc CD.
