all of this means
nothing.
D.C. made me and the rest
of this mess.
you don't even try to
fake it.
all of this means nothing.
D.C. made me and the rest
of this mess.
you don't even try to fake it.
don't eve try.
i'm here because i was ready
to leave.
this should mean more, but it
can't.
go dance, dance.
dance to the sounds of
america's best dressed fake-out.
nothing.
D.C. made me and the rest
of this mess.
you don't even try to
fake it.
all of this means nothing.
D.C. made me and the rest
of this mess.
you don't even try to fake it.
don't eve try.
i'm here because i was ready
to leave.
this should mean more, but it
can't.
go dance, dance.
dance to the sounds of
america's best dressed fake-out.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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.

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,

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
this would make sense, as orchid makes a reference to the frankfurt school in the title of "snow delay at the frankfurt school" (the frankfurt school being a group of thinkers in germany associated with the university of frankfurt, of which adorno was a member). the point being that orchid is, most likely, very aware of adorno's writings.
