@[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 got you now
Hand out a head bow
Hats off all dragons and Medusas doo
Now we're gonna be love gangsters
The chosen sacred due
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
I've got you now now
And every highbrow
Also every nymph and that Cooper too
Safe flight, poverty is a carpet now are me and you
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not far
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
Shoe got me now now
And every flower-plough
Is off my skin, and off your skin too
Ain't no bought a fly
Gonna crack stairs, in a crooked mirror room
Why these skulls won't crackle now for us to see
When it carpets all of you
And us gonna be
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not far
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not far
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
These skulls will crackle now for us to see
The carpets all of you
And they are scared of me
Down in the valley
Train in flames is cutting through the fog
Where everyone is extra
No upper underdog
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not far
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
If your sky is higher now
River awide, it's wider now
The sky is high and not far
Old love has the new love
Hand out a head bow
Hats off all dragons and Medusas doo
Now we're gonna be love gangsters
The chosen sacred due
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
I've got you now now
And every highbrow
Also every nymph and that Cooper too
Safe flight, poverty is a carpet now are me and you
Love gangsters
(Love gangsters)
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not far
Old love has the new love
And you get it along that guide
River awide, it's wider now
The sky this high and not
Love gangsters

Shoe got me now now
And every flower-plough

If your sky is higher now
River awide, it's wider now
The sky is high and not far
Old love has the new love

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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,

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.
