@[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.
Oh yeah

I'mma send this song out to my dad
Cause uh, one day I came to him
And told him - how I was feeling about this girl
He told me he used to write poetry
So I'mma try to poetically explain how I feel
Girl you know that you're the apple of my eye
To me you're like the cherry in my cherry pie
I'll wake up early like the sunrise
To be there for you when you wake up, oh yeah
And I, I can't seem to get you off my mind
Cause since the day we met I've been on cloud nine
I think that's why I didn't recognize
I wasn't putting in enough time
I'm nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be
Nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be, without you oh
You're just like a doctor that wouldn't work
I feel more like a fighter cause you made me hurt
Cause I know all things ain't perfect
But in my heart you're worth it
I hope you change your mind
Cause I'm worthless
Like a football player put in overtime
Knowing you ain't happy, wanna know just why
Can we have a chance girl?
I'm bringing romance girl
I'm nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be
Nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be, without you oh
Ooh baby don't you leave
Cause I'mma try my best to be
Everything that you might need
Tell me baby why'd you leave
Ooh baby don't you leave
Said I don't know anything
Just another young fella from the street
Now I can believe
Ooh baby don't you leave
Cause I'mma try my best to be
Everything that you might need
Tell me baby why'd you leave
Ooh baby don't you leave
Said I don't know anything
Just another young fella from the street
Now I can believe
I'm nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be
Nothing without you
Like a fire with no flame, girl it's all you
I can hardly maintain
You with no me, the earth with no sea
The birds with no bees
That's the way I'm gonna be, without you oh

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.

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.
