@[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.
It's a new day
New day and it's evident
You must've been heaven sent
Something we should be hesitant
But I'm not at all
Just feeling more confident
Just using my common sense
Just trusting that I'm loving it
I can't refuse an offer, so benevolent
Can't assume he's gonna use me
And after him, never call again
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
This is your day
This is your day
It's time to be brave, say I'm not afraid
Not anymore, I used to be calm
Now the temperature's changed
It just ain't the same
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
'Cause I've become brave as the light of day
Straight into a cave to show me the way
That I might be saved
Now I'm turning the page
Thanks to the power of love
I can love because I am brave
I am brave
I am brave, yeah
Ooh, ooh
I heard him say
This thing movin' too fast for him
It's a feeling that I'm straddling
Foolishly adamant
But it's all in his eyes
Really wish he would let me in
'Cause the same way you scared of him
He's scared of bein' hurt again
It's time to let go
Let go of your heart
It's time for a brand new start
Never know we might never part
Baby, don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
This is your day
This is your day
It's time to be brave, say I'm not afraid
Not anymore, I used to be calm
Now the temperature's changed
It just ain't the same
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
'Cause I've become brave as the light of day
Straight into a cave to show me the way
That I might be saved
Now I'm turning the page
Thanks to the power of love
I can love because I am brave
I wouldn't take back
Anything that I've gone through
Now I pray for strength
For anything that I'm gonna do
Whether joy or it's pain
I'm still okay
I'm gonna be all right 'cause I'm not afraid
No, I am brave, say I'm not afraid
Not anymore (not anymore)
I used to be calm (used to be calm)

Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
