@[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.
When the night is closing
Eyes are running wild
Then I hear you humming
All night long
The sign I see it
Tell me am I true
All I need from you is
All I see
This city's paved with cold
Playboys buying fun
Seems there is no hunter left
Without his hunting gun
Can you feel the light
The air is wild open
Oh you see the light it's coming through
It's there in the distance
Always offered to me
Always coming over a hill
Oh your see-saw smile
Lasts me all night long
Like a siren's curl
When the night is long
Now come hold my hand
No bad vibe hearts
Hold my hand you know
This journey could be long
Yeah the seasons come in
All the nights are woven
All the nights we'll see them through
Ah no hundred men now
Would dare cut into us
We'll go on and see it through
Belle,
Une rose qui a joue son role
Mon Miroir,
Mon clef d'or
Mon cheval
Et mon gant sont les cinq secrets de ma puissance
Je voulais livrer
Il vous suffira de mettre ce gant
A votre main droite
Il vous transportera ou vous desirez l'etre
When the night has come in
Your eyes are running wild
Then I hear you humming
All night long
Yeah the sign I see it
Yeah the times I see it
All I need to know from you
Is all I see
Can you feel the light
The air is wild, open
Oh you see the light,
It's coming through
It's there in the distance
Always offered to me
Always coming over a hill
Yeah the seasons come in
All the nights are woven
All the nights we'll see them through
Ahh no hundred men now
Would dare cut into us
We'll go on and see it through

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Magical
Ed Sheeran

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
I love this song, but I'll fall with your knife is my all time favorite of his.
Beleive it or not, this song is based on Beauty and The Beast (not the Disney version though lol)
and yes, PETER MURPHY HAS THE SEXIEST VOICE EVER!
Arguably, one of Peter Murphy's best after leaving Bauhaus. GREAT SONG! There should be more comments, really.
Hey there. This is my first post. Peter is the best. He touches me like no other. His lyrics are truly profound on so many levels, but with this song it's the basic "together we can do anything" concept. I feel (in my opinion of course) that this song is an expression of loyalty and faith.
The speaker is basically stating that despite tough times, together, we'll make it through. The other person in the song is down, his/her eyes running wild throughout nights that are woven and repetitive. He is saying that he hears him/her all night long, every night, and if she/he just hold his hand, together they'll make it through no matter what. The season is coming. All the nights, we'll make it through.
On a personal note, this is a song that truly captured my heart throughout my own touch times and will always be one of my favorites. Especially the "Just For Love" version. He is magic. He draws tears, both sorrow and hope, tears of joy ultimately.
Oh, and if you haven't seen him live, go go go! Magic!

Belle,<br /> A rose that has played its role<br /> My Mirror<br /> My golden key<br /> My horse<br /> And my gloves are the five secrets of my power<br /> I wanted to deliver<br /> All you need to put this glove<br /> At your right hand<br /> It transports you or you want to be
