@[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.
Have you seen my sanity?
I seem to have left it at home
I feel pushed up against the wall
Like some Black Flag song
Oh and i try to wish it away
Everyday, a little closer, a little closer to hell
Why am I so selfish?
I push away everyone who loves me
I don't want, want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Why am I so childish?
It's because my mother never loved me
I don't want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Hold on tight
Everything will be alright
If I choose I
Why am I so selfish?
I push away everyone who loves me
I don't want, want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Why am I so childish?
It's because my mother never loved me
I don't want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
I seem to have left it at home
I feel pushed up against the wall
Like some Black Flag song
Oh and i try to wish it away
Everyday, a little closer, a little closer to hell
Why am I so selfish?
I push away everyone who loves me
I don't want, want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Why am I so childish?
It's because my mother never loved me
I don't want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Hold on tight
Everything will be alright
If I choose I
Why am I so selfish?
I push away everyone who loves me
I don't want, want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me
Why am I so childish?
It's because my mother never loved me
I don't want to be like this
I just want someone to hold me

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Punchline
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.
Whining about his childhood, obviously. Interesting sound however.
There is no whining here. Its fucking deep dipshit.
Pretty incredible song I think. About finding out who he is and why and not liking it.
Unable to love is like living in hell...
