@[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 cant stop playing back that day
It all came down when you walked out that door
Smile hurts My heart beats weird
Everytime i think that you don't care no more
Spaced out my thought ain't playing
I try so hard still i can't sleep at night
Long days without you here
I just can't help what I feel when it seems nice
My heart broke when my girl went missing
But so many try to take your place
You're the one that keeps my heart ticking
It fills that empty space
No more looking around ohh
Seen it all it don't compare to you
My heart broke when my girl went missing
No doubt I messed up bad
The love we had will always be there
You moved on it feels so fast
I get so mad now life don't seem fair
Now I cry I cry so hard
Can't believe you left me so cold
I go hard to get you back
Until that day i'ma let this be known
My heart broke when my girl went missing
But so many try to take your place
You're the one that keeps my heart ticking
It fills that empty space
No more looking around ohh
Seen it all it don't compare to you
My heart broke when my girl went missing
I can't help how you're tearing me down
My heart beats without making a sound ohh

Why can't you be here with me now
My heart broke when my girl went missing
But so many try to take your place

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
I love this song! Iyaz is awesome And for the 'what does this song mean to you' part, i think its pretty obvious. He cheated on his girlfriend so she left him. He realized he messed up, and still loves her. A lot of girls are trying to be his new girlfriend, but like i said he still loves his ex.
