@[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.
the final war to purge and purify this sacred world - vilified. one culture interred with righteousness, weaved from deception. down on bent knees we cry for salvation. upon death we feast with blood soaked deceit
destruction creeps but demons don't speak. for the truth makes hearts bleed with sorrow so angels watch the funeral march and wait for a desined tomorrow
preyed upon by the pestilence of avarice and ignorance. from the cradle to the grave we forfeit. freedom to the ranks of slaves
demons dance to a black symphony as the war comes quick to a close and angels on high look down in disgust to a dead earth that circles below
when the heavens shed tears a sordid dusk rapes their sun-sorched machinery of disease. this brutal path we tread etched by tears of the damned. the art of salvation crafted by hands that would kill... that would kill
a wasteland, a ruin is all that remains as this iron-age dissolves life to commodity, our souls committed to atrocity, no sort of prayer can save us now but...
... still we will fight down from the heavens into the arms of my mother earth. to burn the cradle of civilization - returned to dust, still we will fight down from the heavens
destruction creeps but demons don't speak. for the truth makes hearts bleed with sorrow so angels watch the funeral march and wait for a desined tomorrow
preyed upon by the pestilence of avarice and ignorance. from the cradle to the grave we forfeit. freedom to the ranks of slaves
demons dance to a black symphony as the war comes quick to a close and angels on high look down in disgust to a dead earth that circles below
when the heavens shed tears a sordid dusk rapes their sun-sorched machinery of disease. this brutal path we tread etched by tears of the damned. the art of salvation crafted by hands that would kill... that would kill
a wasteland, a ruin is all that remains as this iron-age dissolves life to commodity, our souls committed to atrocity, no sort of prayer can save us now but...
... still we will fight down from the heavens into the arms of my mother earth. to burn the cradle of civilization - returned to dust, still we will fight down from the heavens

Mountain Song

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."
