In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Make you feel
Don't you ever get restless
Don't you ever want to chase a thrill
When you find in the spring
Is a natural thing
So very understandable
That your eyes are straight
And very weariness away
Smile coming now smile
Or the juice running loose
From the food of a friend
My love's gonna taste much better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good (I can make feel good)
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good (I can make feel good)
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
La la la la la la la.....
Move a little closer
Then ain't nothing that I got to hide
As the time past you only see the grass
Grows greener on my side
If you want to go for it
Don't go for it
'Cause time will only pass you by
So take a tip
Think the thick of it
And make me feel better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
I'll make you feel better, better, better, better
I'll make you feel better, better, better, better
I'll make you feel, I'll make you feel
Better, better, better, better, better, better, better
Make you feel
Move a little closer
Then ain't nothing that I got to hide
As the time past you only see the grass
Grows greener on my side
If you want to go for it
Don't go for it
'Cause time will only pass you by
So take a tip
Think the thick of it
And make me feel better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better
La la la la la la la la la....
(Make you feel good, make you feel good)
As long as I make you better, better
(Make you feel good, make you feel good)
La la la la la la la la la....
(Make you feel good, make you feel good)
Don't you ever get restless
Don't you ever want to chase a thrill

Come I make you feel better baby
I can make you feel good (I can make feel good)
It doesn't matter whatever they do
As long as I make you feel better better

The Night We Met

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

@[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.
