Everything seemed so picture-perfect when it all started
I should of known that you were so cold-hearted
All the lies, it just seemed so fake
And yet you seemed so blissful when we parted
You were just a fake!
It's just the principle
You always seemed to think you were invincible
Invisible to all my pain and anguish that you caused
my life just seemed to paused
I thought it was the end!
Reflecting on all the insults you delt
I can't express all the pain I felt
Eating me up on the inside
I couldn't find no place, no sanctuary for me to hide,
When I needed you the most, you just pushed me aside
You only cared about yourself!
You tried to ruin me!
You were just a fake
You tried to get everthing for free!
You only cared about yourself

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.
