This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
We've been climbing uphill together for three years and counting.
Life kicks us when we're down, but we just keep trying.
What else can we do?
Dwell on the past and it will bury you.
But it's getting harder to look ahead with all these conflicting thoughts inside my head.
These days are too dark, and they last too fucking long.
That's why we made a promise.
That's why we carved it in stone.
And where it was written is where it will fucking stay.
It's the sword that we will live by,
even if it means we have to die this way.
Destination: Death or Better Days.
When we've had enough,
we've had enough.
There's something inside of us that can't be touched.
We are Unbreakable.
This is where it ends.
I'm putting my foot down.
I'm sick of second-guessing and I'm fucking sick of falling down.
Rock bottom is a beautiful start.
We're rising up to show the world our scars
from a former life that we'd rather not hide.
This is our time.
Life kicks us when we're down, but we just keep trying.
What else can we do?
Dwell on the past and it will bury you.
But it's getting harder to look ahead with all these conflicting thoughts inside my head.
These days are too dark, and they last too fucking long.
That's why we made a promise.
That's why we carved it in stone.
And where it was written is where it will fucking stay.
It's the sword that we will live by,
even if it means we have to die this way.
Destination: Death or Better Days.
When we've had enough,
we've had enough.
There's something inside of us that can't be touched.
We are Unbreakable.
This is where it ends.
I'm putting my foot down.
I'm sick of second-guessing and I'm fucking sick of falling down.
Rock bottom is a beautiful start.
We're rising up to show the world our scars
from a former life that we'd rather not hide.
This is our time.

Holiday

@[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.
