This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Ready to bolt
at the first glimpse of failsafe
Signing my checks
with a name that's not mine
Clocking the hours that spin round through the tail end
Scolding those hills ahead
We both had a hand in it
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid
Raising a flag
at the first sign of failsafe
Another red flag and
we've lost half the team
I left the game
to find you at the pavement
Scolding those hills ahead
We both had a hand in it
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid
at the first glimpse of failsafe
Signing my checks
with a name that's not mine
Clocking the hours that spin round through the tail end
Scolding those hills ahead
We both had a hand in it
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid
Raising a flag
at the first sign of failsafe
Another red flag and
we've lost half the team
I left the game
to find you at the pavement
Scolding those hills ahead
We both had a hand in it
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
You and me both, kid
You and me both, kid

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
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.

Blue

Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
The speaker sounds trapped in a relationship. It seems this individuals is looking for an opportunity to leave his / her partner when the opportune moment arises. Failsafe could be the instance where the individual identifies reasoning to say both parties are to blame. Thus, the individual feels justified when the failsafe activity occurs to say he / she is not leaving for selfish reasons alone.
Failsafe, then, is a “justified” opportunity / excuse to escape...in this case justified on the imposed presumption of mutual failure.
