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.
I've been making progress, dealing with my sin
Like a private painter, a vision lies within me
The picture drawn has a dark sky, but I see a glimpse of sun
My spirit's clean and I'm true to the cause
Singing for the future, so my music can stay alive
I'm lonely with my demons broken is the life I knew
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing into me
Another city to swallow, floods of nature must drown this land
But I'm safe in my tower, should I lend a helping hand
From the cradle pure and innocent, stumbling guilty to the grave
I'll make it through cause I'm hungry at heart
Looking for a reason and nothing will pass me by. No!
Clear starlight, moon is bright, cold whispering winds are here
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing back at me back at me, oh yeah
Clear starlight, heaven's fire, warm cosmic winds blow there
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing into me, into me
Like a private painter, a vision lies within me
The picture drawn has a dark sky, but I see a glimpse of sun
My spirit's clean and I'm true to the cause
Singing for the future, so my music can stay alive
I'm lonely with my demons broken is the life I knew
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing into me
Another city to swallow, floods of nature must drown this land
But I'm safe in my tower, should I lend a helping hand
From the cradle pure and innocent, stumbling guilty to the grave
I'll make it through cause I'm hungry at heart
Looking for a reason and nothing will pass me by. No!
Clear starlight, moon is bright, cold whispering winds are here
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing back at me back at me, oh yeah
Clear starlight, heaven's fire, warm cosmic winds blow there
My love is a rock far out in the sea
And your love is the wave crashing into me, into me

Holiday

@[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.
