@[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.
Death feels like the butterfly
can't escape the scarred lie
Real relationships must die
Underneath a scarred lie
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
What if change gate
Don't watch it show your shape
Desperate in death
Death will tell them
Death will kill them
Death will tell
First everything must recede
Then all will tell us to fear
and hear the sullen respite clears
into a time never wanted here
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
Reach through a life's test own
Being the worm crawling through
Death feels like a butterfly
Can't escape the scarred lie
Real relationships must die
Underneath a scar
Now I'll break on tonight
I'll escape light light
I'll escape one tonight
Gravitate slice slice
On the voice I reunite it's nothing at all
Once divided other sticks all through the eyes of blue
Reach through a life's test own
Being the worm crawling through
I'll escape, one tonight
Gravitate slice slice
I'll escape, one tonight
Gravitate slice slice
can't escape the scarred lie
Real relationships must die
Underneath a scarred lie
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
What if change gate
Don't watch it show your shape
Desperate in death
Death will tell them
Death will kill them
Death will tell
First everything must recede
Then all will tell us to fear
and hear the sullen respite clears
into a time never wanted here
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
We globalize the others lies
We sanctify the great disguise
Reach through a life's test own
Being the worm crawling through
Death feels like a butterfly
Can't escape the scarred lie
Real relationships must die
Underneath a scar
Now I'll break on tonight
I'll escape light light
I'll escape one tonight
Gravitate slice slice
On the voice I reunite it's nothing at all
Once divided other sticks all through the eyes of blue
Reach through a life's test own
Being the worm crawling through
I'll escape, one tonight
Gravitate slice slice
I'll escape, one tonight
Gravitate slice slice

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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.
I thought the bit that says scarred lie said starlight..\fecking great song
