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.
So many things that I, that I wish I would've said
if only she knew how much i feel for her now
So many things that I wish, if only she knew how much i feel
it's too late. It's Too Late, you've taken her from me
Don't say a word (I'll take my time with you)
In honor of her
I can't get her picture out of my head
you say you didn't mean it
you say you're really sick
That means nothing to me, i want your life for hers.
you'll never get away with this
I want your life for hers
Come on and rape my spirit
just like you did to her
come on and rape my spirit
make me feel ugly
Don't say a word
you Murderer (I'll take my time with you)
in honor of her
This is a fantasy of mine: to avenge the death of my love
it's all that i could want
it's all that i could ask for
you'll never get away with this
I want your life for hers
So many things that I, that I wish I would've said
if only she knew how much i feel for her now
So many things that I wish, if only she knew how much i feel
it's too late. It's Too Late, you've taken her from me
Officer...
He should have known he had this coming
if only she knew how much i feel for her now
So many things that I wish, if only she knew how much i feel
it's too late. It's Too Late, you've taken her from me
Don't say a word (I'll take my time with you)
In honor of her
I can't get her picture out of my head
you say you didn't mean it
you say you're really sick
That means nothing to me, i want your life for hers.
you'll never get away with this
I want your life for hers
Come on and rape my spirit
just like you did to her
come on and rape my spirit
make me feel ugly
Don't say a word
you Murderer (I'll take my time with you)
in honor of her
This is a fantasy of mine: to avenge the death of my love
it's all that i could want
it's all that i could ask for
you'll never get away with this
I want your life for hers
So many things that I, that I wish I would've said
if only she knew how much i feel for her now
So many things that I wish, if only she knew how much i feel
it's too late. It's Too Late, you've taken her from me
Officer...
He should have known he had this coming

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.
