This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
what do they call it when another force is is your hand?
and what will they say when they find me here this way?
and know, know, know, know, that it wasn't my idea
no it wasn't my idea
but oh, just to see your face when you find me here like this
now there's no time for wondering
darkness is now at my door
rapping with his thorny fingers
he's come to take me home
he'll envelope me in sleep
wrapped in black feathered wings
but before we fly- here's my goodbye
i get the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as the room is growing cold
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as my blood is running cold
they won't call it suicide
cuz i've got the killers name engraved so deeply in my veins
they will call it homocide
cuz i've got your name so clearly carved into my wrist
the weak and the lame
will find their way to escape
but why should i leave all this beauty behind
and forfeit the joy in my life in the name of the name in vain? *
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as the room is growing cold
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as your blood is running cold
far be it for i to leave all this beauty behind
i will stay to watch you wither away
and with any luck you may be hit by a truck
and i will remain to dance upon your grave
oh look and you see how much your death means to me
please won't you play in a busy street?
far be it for i to leave all this beauty behind
and i will remain to dance upon your grave
and what will they say when they find me here this way?
and know, know, know, know, that it wasn't my idea
no it wasn't my idea
but oh, just to see your face when you find me here like this
now there's no time for wondering
darkness is now at my door
rapping with his thorny fingers
he's come to take me home
he'll envelope me in sleep
wrapped in black feathered wings
but before we fly- here's my goodbye
i get the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as the room is growing cold
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as my blood is running cold
they won't call it suicide
cuz i've got the killers name engraved so deeply in my veins
they will call it homocide
cuz i've got your name so clearly carved into my wrist
the weak and the lame
will find their way to escape
but why should i leave all this beauty behind
and forfeit the joy in my life in the name of the name in vain? *
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as the room is growing cold
i'll have the last word, i'll have the last laugh
sure as your blood is running cold
far be it for i to leave all this beauty behind
i will stay to watch you wither away
and with any luck you may be hit by a truck
and i will remain to dance upon your grave
oh look and you see how much your death means to me
please won't you play in a busy street?
far be it for i to leave all this beauty behind
and i will remain to dance upon your grave

@[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.
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,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
