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.
One way or another
I'm gonna find you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna win you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna see you,
I want to meet you, meet you, meet you, meet you
One day, maybe next week,
I'm gonna meet you.
I'll meet you, meet you...
I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all out
I'll see who's around.
One way or another
I'm gonna find you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna win you,
I'll get you, I'll get you.
One way or another
I'm gonna see you,
I gonna meet you, meet you, meet you, meet you
One day, maybe next week,
I'm gonna meet you.
I'll meet you, oh...
And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus down town,
See who's hanging out.
One way or another
I'm gonna lose you,
I'm gonna give you the slip.
A slip on the hip
Or another
I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna trick you, I'll trick you.
One way or another
I'm gonna lose you,
I want to trick you, trick you, trick you, trick you.
One way or another
I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna give you the slip.
I walk down the mall
Stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all,
Find out who to call.
Lead you to
The supermarket checkout
The specials in the rack,
You can get lost in the crack.
One way or another.
(Stand over by the wall where I can see it all.)
One way or another.
(Where I can see it all, find out who to call.)
One way or another.
(Stand over by the wall where I can see it all.)
One way or another.
(Where I can see it all, find out who to call.)
One way or another.
(Stand over by the wall where I can see it all.)
One way or another.
(Where I can see it all, find out who to call.)
I'm gonna find you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna win you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna see you,
I want to meet you, meet you, meet you, meet you
One day, maybe next week,
I'm gonna meet you.
I'll meet you, meet you...
I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all out
I'll see who's around.
One way or another
I'm gonna find you,
I'm gonna get yer, get yer, get yer, get yer.
One way or another
I'm gonna win you,
I'll get you, I'll get you.

See who's hanging out.

@[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.

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.
