@[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.
Baby girl (Baby girl take ya time)
Baby girl take ya time (baby girl take ya time)
Please don't rush and go (don't rush and go)
I can never let you leave (I can never let you leave)
And I don't want to have to see ya go
No, No I can't let ya go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
See I'm the life of the party
The flashy dude on the scene
I had the way with the ladies since the age of 13
See I go city to city and it's the same old thing
Dis girl that girl so many beautiful queens (yep yep)
Now I can't say that me fighting temptation ain't hard
But I never let another chick to come tear us apart girl
You know you got ya name tattooed on my heart
Real talk that's how I feel you been from the start
No, No I can't let ya go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
Baby girl don't leave I need somebody right here to help me smooth things out
Like coming home off the road from touring to a happy house
See that what I'm talkin' bout
See I'm givin' you the benefit of the doubt you getting all mad and got me sleepin' on the couch
You trying to get chicken but right here you got steak
Stop trying to break up somethin' good ya gotta have faith
'cause its in god's hands plus I'm being a bigger man
Fand I'm a veteran come on girl give me one mo chance
No, No I can't let ya go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
No No I can't let you go
You was there before the deal
Me and you was like jack and Jill
All I wanted was a varsity jacket and a yearbook to remember the years
See you stopped believing in me when I needed you the most
But you want a weddin' ring the most I propose is a toast
I was beggin' you to stay pleading wit you not to leave
But you left me anyway and all that I can do is grieve
I thought I needed you thought I couldn't be anythin' without you
Now I'm the one you beggin' to because I made it without you
Oh you're in my heart, you're in my soul, you're on my mind, all the time
You're in my heart you're in me soul you're on my mind all the time

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

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.
