@[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.

Snow is falling all the time
Snow is smiling all the time
I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready to move on
(Cracks on its surface made it clear that there's warm water bubbling up from within)
They closed the parkway late last night
And as I sat with the echoes of the lies that I told
I felt young, never changed by crooked hearts
So put the shotgun back in the glove
Come on and wait another year for the dream far away
To come home, to be brave
Snow is falling all the time
Snow is smiling all the time
I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready to move on
They boarded up the windows and the doors to my house
No one will ever read the letters of the lies that I told
From the years I was changed by crooked hearts
Why did they have to go and do us like that?
Why did they have to go and run from the dream far away?
We're we there? Was that brave?
To think everything must die
For anyone to matter
Got to find any way to your wild heart
I will find any way to your wild heart
I will find any way
Now everything has changed
And I can't tell what matters
I will find any way to your wild heart

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
