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.
komm - denn es ist schon so spät
schau noch mal unters bett
knie dich hin zum gebet
kommt - zieh die decke ans kinn
und wenn du endlich träumst
komm ich dir in den sinn
dein herz schlägt schnell
denn du bist auf der flucht vor etwas
dein puls rast, denn der tod steht hinter dir
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht
komm - bald schon wirst du mich sehn
denn nur wer sich mir stellt
kann die träume verstehn
gott - hat mich in dir versteckt
morgen früh, wenn gott will
wirst du wieder geweckt
dein herz schlägt schnell
denn du bist auf der flucht vor etwas
dein puls rast, denn der tod steht hinter dir
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht
bedenke, dass du sterblich bist
und dass dein fleisch aus asche ist
dass jede nacht die letzte ist
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht
schau noch mal unters bett
knie dich hin zum gebet
kommt - zieh die decke ans kinn
und wenn du endlich träumst
komm ich dir in den sinn
dein herz schlägt schnell
denn du bist auf der flucht vor etwas
dein puls rast, denn der tod steht hinter dir
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht
komm - bald schon wirst du mich sehn
denn nur wer sich mir stellt
kann die träume verstehn
gott - hat mich in dir versteckt
morgen früh, wenn gott will
wirst du wieder geweckt
dein herz schlägt schnell
denn du bist auf der flucht vor etwas
dein puls rast, denn der tod steht hinter dir
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht
bedenke, dass du sterblich bist
und dass dein fleisch aus asche ist
dass jede nacht die letzte ist
dreh dich nicht um
lauf weg und bleib stumm
wer sich umdreht heut nacht
kriegt den garaus gemacht

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[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.

The title means "Don't Turn Around" in German.
English translation: Come - cause it's already so late Look under the bed once more Kneel down to pray
Come - yank the blanket up to your chin And when you're finally dreaming I'll come in your mind
Your heart beats fast Because you're on the run from something Your pulse races, cause death is standing behind you
Don't turn around Run away and stay silent Whoever turns around tonight Will meet their end
Come - you'll see me soon Because only those who stand for me Can understand the dreams
God - hid me in you In the morning, if God wants You'll wake up again
Your heart beats fast...
Don't turn around...
Remember, that you're mortal And your flesh is made of ash That every night is your last
Don't turn around...
