This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm not a machine
Looking around, everything I see
It seems to lose its color
Don't know what's become of me
Barely alive, how did I survive
One day just like the other
I'm sick of this routine
So I'm gonna cut these strings
Cut them and set me free
Nothing controlling me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
My body is here but somewhere along the way
I lost my mind
It's never too late to be found
Waiting on someone to pick me up
But I got left behind
But it won't bring me down
Cause I'm gonna cut these strings
Cut them and set me free
Nothing controlling me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
Change the circumstance
It's gonna take me
Here is my memory
Reset the way you think
No more commands
No demands
No more losing control
No pushing buttons
No automatic no more
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
No pushing buttons, no automatic
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
Looking around, everything I see
It seems to lose its color
Don't know what's become of me
Barely alive, how did I survive
One day just like the other
I'm sick of this routine
So I'm gonna cut these strings
Cut them and set me free
Nothing controlling me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
My body is here but somewhere along the way
I lost my mind
It's never too late to be found
Waiting on someone to pick me up
But I got left behind
But it won't bring me down
Cause I'm gonna cut these strings
Cut them and set me free
Nothing controlling me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
Change the circumstance
It's gonna take me
Here is my memory
Reset the way you think
No more commands
No demands
No more losing control
No pushing buttons
No automatic no more
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
No pushing buttons, no automatic
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine
I've got the breath in me
I'm not a machine, I'm not a machine

@[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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
