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.
Forget your life and all you know
I’ll see more when all the walls come crashing down
white light is your only safety
any other thing might hurt you too much
Every time a liar’s born
there is only one thought and is murder
anytime anywhere, take your pick
welcome to the darkest place
Men trade their only born son for life
think there’s nothing wrong taking a fee
nothing I can do can change the past
can you live without watching, can you?
[Coro]
Why can’t you see?
the cancer grows it spreads it spreads until there’s nothing left
you’ll never know
how good I felt when I thought I was free from all of you
There was a time when all I wanted, all I needed was to feel I was the only one the only one that really mattered
And now it’s more like I have time to contemplate and watch the way that I
Have taken what I wanted, what I really wanted
[Coro]
We all die (x7)
There’s nothing for us now
We all die (x7)
Forget the times you broke your promises went against your word
the way I see the world and see your life and operate here
there aint no time there aint nothing there aint no answers here
sometimes I ask myself these questions when I lay sleeping
Then again it’s for your own good that you really don’t know the truth
just know I’m coming on through, I’m coming on through, I’m coming on through
I’m coming for you!
[Coro]
I’ll see more when all the walls come crashing down
white light is your only safety
any other thing might hurt you too much
Every time a liar’s born
there is only one thought and is murder
anytime anywhere, take your pick
welcome to the darkest place
Men trade their only born son for life
think there’s nothing wrong taking a fee
nothing I can do can change the past
can you live without watching, can you?
[Coro]
Why can’t you see?
the cancer grows it spreads it spreads until there’s nothing left
you’ll never know
how good I felt when I thought I was free from all of you
There was a time when all I wanted, all I needed was to feel I was the only one the only one that really mattered
And now it’s more like I have time to contemplate and watch the way that I
Have taken what I wanted, what I really wanted
[Coro]
We all die (x7)
There’s nothing for us now
We all die (x7)
Forget the times you broke your promises went against your word
the way I see the world and see your life and operate here
there aint no time there aint nothing there aint no answers here
sometimes I ask myself these questions when I lay sleeping
Then again it’s for your own good that you really don’t know the truth
just know I’m coming on through, I’m coming on through, I’m coming on through
I’m coming for you!
[Coro]

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
