@[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 miss your soft lips
I miss your white sheets
I miss the scratch of your unshaved face on my cheek
And this is so hard
'Cause I didn't see
That you were the love of my life and it kills me
I see your face in, strangers on the street
I still say your name when I'm talking in my sleep
And in the limelight, I play it off fine
But I can't handle it when I turn off my night light
(Oh, oh, oh) but I can't handle it when I turn off my night light
(Oh, oh, oh)
They say that true love hurts
Well, this could almost kill me
Young love, murder
That is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
The life is fading from me
While you watch my heart bleed
Young love, murder
That is what this this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
Remember the time
We jumped the fence when
The stones were playing, and we were to broke to get in
You held my hand and
They made me crawl
I swear to God it was the best night of my life
Or when you took me, across the world, we
Promised this would last forever but now I see
It was my past life
A beautiful time
Drunk off of nothing but each other till the sunrise (oh, oh, oh)
Drunk off of nothing but each other till the sunrise
They say that true love hurts
Well this could almost kill me
Young love, murder
That is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
The life is fading from me
While you watch my heart bleed
Young love, murder
That is what this this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
It was the past life
A beautiful time
Drunk off of nothing but each other till the sunrise (till the sunrise)
They say that true love hurts
Well this could almost kill me
Young love, murder
That is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
The life is fading from me
While you watch my heart bleed
Young love, murder
That is what this this must be
I would give it all to not be sleeping alone
I miss your white sheets
I miss the scratch of your unshaved face on my cheek
And this is so hard
'Cause I didn't see

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
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."
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
This song is about how she lost her fiancé in an accident. The emotions created by that traumatic event led to the creation of this song; probably one of her deepest songs that I've ever heard from her. Imagine: You meet someone; you fall madly in love with them, get engaged, and have that person torn from your arms while you are left alone, haunted by the memories of your past life with them. This song is about so much more than loss, it's about total mental and emotional devastation, about wanting to go back to the past when you had that person, but knowing that you will never be able to. They're gone, and you can't do anything about it, despite the strong outer appearance that you put on. This song has made me cry multiple times, it's just loaded with emotional lyrics, such as "Drunk off of nothing but each other till the sunrise" and the play on a traditional saying in "They say that true love hurts well this could almost kill me". Half the strength of this song is the emotion that Ke$ha puts into this song, the other half is the fact that everyone can relate to it in some way. We've all lost someone who we loved, we've all missed someone dearly, and we've all made that harsh realization that we can never have them back. Most defiantly one of her deepest songs, and I hope you feel the same way about it as I do, with tears in your eyes as you reflect upon your past life and how badly you would give anything just to hold their hand again, just to see their face, just to not be sleeping alone...just to be loved by them once again.
