@[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.
It's safe to say there's only now
A place called home is just
a memory away
I know I've done this all before
A thousands silent voices
begging me to stay
Apologies all left unsaid
Secrets better left unspoken
Dreams laid down and put to bed
Rumors stirred and reawaken
And if I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
It's safe to say there's nothing now
It's all so quiet but I can't
forget the sound
A thousand voices call my name
A thousand hands that pull me back
down to the ground
I turn away from what you are
Denying all that you have given
I find a place that's safe and far
In time all will be forgiven
And if I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
A place called home is just
a memory away
I know I've done this all before
A thousands silent voices
begging me to stay
Apologies all left unsaid
Secrets better left unspoken
Dreams laid down and put to bed
Rumors stirred and reawaken
And if I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
It's safe to say there's nothing now
It's all so quiet but I can't
forget the sound
A thousand voices call my name
A thousand hands that pull me back
down to the ground
I turn away from what you are
Denying all that you have given
I find a place that's safe and far
In time all will be forgiven
And if I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?

Mountain Song
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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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 think this is about a member of a cult who realizes that it is wrong and tries to escape. That's all I think of when I hear this song. I always picture a child telling her friend about her plans to escape and asking her if she will remember her-
If I try to get away How long until I'm free And if I don't come back here Will you remember me?
The first two lines seem to hint that even if she does escape, the memory will always be with her. The third line suggests that she will come back to rescue her friend, but she may not be able to.
The girl feels alone even though this cult is the only "home" she's ever known-
It's safe to say I'm lonely now A place called home
All the little children of the cult know that it is wrong but don't speak up about it for fear of what will happen if they do. The other kids try to keep the girl from running away because they are scared she will not be able to survive in the real world-
Begging me to stay Apologies all left unsaid Secrets better left unspoken Dreams are slowly put to bed Rumors stirred and reawoken
The last line probably hints at the recurring talking about escaping.
The chief members of the cult keep her from escaping by force, telling her that the cult is not wrong-
Can't forget the sound A thousand voices call my name A thousand hands that Pull me back down to the ground
All the time the girl has grown up she has looked up to the adults, but now she realizes how wrong they were-
I turn away from what you are Denying all that you have given I find a place that's safe and far In time all will be forgiven
