@[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.
we collapsed as fast as your lung
as i put a bullet through your chest
as you look down the barrel of my gun
you're wondering where i'll aim next
well maybe i'll aim for your beautiful eyes
or maybe that mouth, that told all of those lies
(chorus)
well can you see the smile on my face
or is my gun in the way?
well i can't let it down, dear
like you did me everyday
did you think i wouldn't find out?
did you you think the truth wouldn't be told?
well you can't get away with murder
but you can come pretty close
well i pretended not to hear
as you're begging for your life
and as you're screaming in fear
i just look outside
maybe we can talk about this beautiful day
or how that shade of red matches your face
(chorus)
i've got one last bullet
i'll make sure that it counts
i don't know you think you're fooling
if you thought you could get out
well maybe i jumped off the handle
thinking i could do this
so put that perfect barrel
between those perfect lips
and you know it...
and you know it...
and you know it fits so well(x 2)
it fits, oh well.
