This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Woke up the other morning was a perfect day
Picked up the newspaper checked the front page
What'd it say?
Ten new wars today, no cause for dismay
Generally ok
Hip hooray
Dragged on my Kit Gaudier recycled plastic handmade yesterday
My face paled assailed by the tales of decay
Enthralled by the worldwide hop to the fray
Next page
Things are getting better all the way
Seems another fuckin tanker blew its load in the bay
Hey great
What you'd call just a small waylay
Couple hundred tons of the crude on display
Greasy
Time to move on anyway
Give me the next headline just a byline away
New plague
Something 'bout the coming of AIDS airborne
Now we got some trouble goin on
Get down hell yeah
Fuck the goddamn world
Oooee
Fixed myself a hot cup of tea
Step back relax clicked on the TV
What'd you see?
Pop star's raw derriere
Shake the shit bare wax legs in the air
Monoieu
Bluffin with the T&A flair
They say sex sells when you got shit to say
Fuck please Miss K put yo vag away
Profane
Pop the damn dial make it change
From the purely puerile to the plainly inane
Insane
Now I'm going out of my brain
From the B-grade pain that I failed to refrain
It's the anthropological fly on the cubicle wall
With the universal casting call for all
The line between the real and the wrong all gone
Now we got some trouble going on
Get down hell yeah
Fuck the goddamn world
Here we go
Knocked on my clock radio
So I could get my piece of the say-so
First row
Tickets to the blow-by-blow
Stereo
Mmm.. that's how the shit flows
Explode
Just another eye for eye
Let you know whose god is booking the flight
Only one thing holy 'bout a holy war
And that's the bullet-ridden bodies
On the killing floor
But the Wall Street booms and everyone's paid
'cept the child who made my shoes for a dollar a day
I'm afraid big biz got your government played
Demockracy rotting on a mad cow strain
It's the fast-food chains that been feeding us brains
And remains--cutting cost still the name of the game
Hate to rain on your parade but now the hunter is pray
New dawn
Now we got some trouble going on
Picked up the newspaper checked the front page

@[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.

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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
