Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
The twelve hour drives are nothing when I'm with all of you
And its the road that calls my name
So come on, come on, punch it, I can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know, distant friends will be closer tomorrow
And when the lights go down, I swear I'll look for your eyes
You're singing every word – you know we’re here because of you!
So come on, come on, punch it, can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know distant friends will be closer tomorrow
Just make-do with what you're given
Give it up because I'll never listen
This is all, all that I've dreamt of – reasons why I wake to face the day
And now we go!
And every night it makes me feel so alive
Can only grow up from here so keep me here another year
Cause this is all, all that I dreamt of – reasons that I wake to face the day
And I'll live to face the day!
We'll go through life because it never seemed
Your life is not what's right for me
We’ll blaze the roads, and we’ll paint the skies
Our path is plagued with discontent good byes
We’re striking the days so we can burn the nights
And I'll never look back on what I’ve left behind…
And its the road that calls my name
So come on, come on, punch it, I can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know, distant friends will be closer tomorrow
And when the lights go down, I swear I'll look for your eyes
You're singing every word – you know we’re here because of you!
So come on, come on, punch it, can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know distant friends will be closer tomorrow
Just make-do with what you're given
Give it up because I'll never listen
This is all, all that I've dreamt of – reasons why I wake to face the day
And now we go!
And every night it makes me feel so alive
Can only grow up from here so keep me here another year
Cause this is all, all that I dreamt of – reasons that I wake to face the day
And I'll live to face the day!
We'll go through life because it never seemed
Your life is not what's right for me
We’ll blaze the roads, and we’ll paint the skies
Our path is plagued with discontent good byes
We’re striking the days so we can burn the nights
And I'll never look back on what I’ve left behind…

Fortnight
Taylor Swift

The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

@[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.
oops. throw in the chorus again after the second verse.
