@[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.
Insane am I the only motherfucker with a brain?
I'm hearing voices but all they do is complain
How many times have you wanted to kill
Everything and everyone
Say you'll do it but never will
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
I am my Father's son
He's a phantom, a mystery and that leaves me
Nothing!
How many times have you wanted to die?
It's too late for me. All you have to do is get rid of me!
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
I tried you lied to me for so long
Everywhere I go, there's a sense of it
Freak on my antics and give me a choice
Doesn't matter if I give a shit
It's shit that you gave me
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
Do you want to feel pain? Takin' my name in vain
Caring never felt so lame inside
Anybody else got pride? Do you want to take my life?
Maybe I'll reverse my ride
Who the fuck are you? Fuck you!
Better suck it up 'cause you bled through
Better get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me!
I feel safe
Seems you're saved
I feel safe
It seems you're saved
Look me in my brand new eye
Look me in my brand new eye
Look me in my brand new eye
Motherfucker!
Look me in my brand new eye
Look me in my brand new eye
Look me in my brand new eye
Look me in my brand new
I'm hearing voices but all they do is complain
How many times have you wanted to kill
Everything and everyone
Say you'll do it but never will
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
I am my Father's son
He's a phantom, a mystery and that leaves me
Nothing!
How many times have you wanted to die?
It's too late for me. All you have to do is get rid of me!

Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.

Trouble Breathing
Alkaline Trio
Alkaline Trio
While the obvious connections with suicide or alcoholism could be drawn easily, more subtly this song could be about someone who views the world through a negative lens constantly and how as much as the writer tries to show the beauty in the world, this person refuses to see it. It's one or another between the rope and the bottle. There is no good option for this person. They can't see it. Skiba sings it in a kind of exasperated way like He's tired of hearing this negative view constantly and just allowing that person to continue feeling the way they feel knowing he can't do anything about it. You can hear it when he says maybe you're a vampire.

Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart
Corey Hart
In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.
This song has many themes. Mainly It's about Corey's Dad and how he never knew him becuse he died before he was born. "You can't see California without Marlon Brando's Eyes" was yelled by a homeless man in NYC. "It's all in your head" referres the best advice that a therapist or psychiatrist can give is that it's just all in your head and you have to fix it yourself.
he didn't die before he was born he met back up with his dad later in his career
was about to say the exact same thing.
The 'You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes' was what some dude was screaming in New york while handing out pamphlets for a cult or something
k im getting tired of reading aobut peoples little arguments over teh computer......no offense...but this song is basically about how corey NEVER knew his dad and NO he did not abuse him.....but then corey saw some guy in NYC screaming You cants see.......blah blah blah......u get the picture. and the line about how they say its all in ur head is also just what a therapist would tell u........soooo.....yeah
hah i'm glad there's someone here to solve all these gay-ass arguments over the internet...<br /> <br /> REMEMBER PEOPLE: <br /> Arguing on the internet is like winning the special Olympics: Even if you win, you're still retarded...<br /> and also...heathyr is completely right, Corey wasn't abused by his father, his mother requested that he remain absent from his life when Corey was born, and thus, Corey never met his father until he was much older. This song has a lot about how much that messed with him, because, as i'm sure many of you know, not having a father-figure in your life isn't so good for an up-bringing. So have some empathy people! SlipKnoT forever!
the song is about a hobo that corey sees on the sidewalk in new york that keeps walking up to him saying look me in my eye its my new eye it lets me see california but he didnt actualy have an eye the hobos name was Marlon Brando

@fuckyourworld9 EYELESS if we can't HEAR what it's about? last i checked, eyes are for seeing and not hearing. hearing is for your ears. maybe you should do some fact checks buddy, just say in.
i don't know what it is about this song, but it rules, it'z quite sad how it wasn't a single, oh well L8eZ The KnOT 4LifE
Actually that isn't true, if you knew anything it was about a bum, on the street who kept on repeating it as they walked by.
Yes, the chorus is derived from a freak screaming it in the streets. The song is about how Corey's dad doesn't know him
oooh, the marlon brando's eyes thing just sounds cool. like some kind of REALLY good movie quote.
"You can't see California withouth Marlon Brando's eyes" thing sorta annoyes me. There is no particular reason for it. Its just that hearing that over and over again just pisses me off.
