@[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.
The medicine is blending in it's in the blood with oxygen
I need this right now to figure myself out
Cutting through the ribbons of self doubt
I never thought you'd see me this way
You are the worst and I am to blame
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with red's and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name
These lies we fall into, the pieces I left you
Of your favorite picture torn into two
I never thought we'd end up this way
You are the worst, I am to blame
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with reds and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name
(So close the door and lock it tight
Then I'll know your safe tonight
Turn on the song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close)
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with reds and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name
I need this right now to figure myself out
Cutting through the ribbons of self doubt
I never thought you'd see me this way
You are the worst and I am to blame
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with red's and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name
These lies we fall into, the pieces I left you
Of your favorite picture torn into two
I never thought we'd end up this way
You are the worst, I am to blame
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with reds and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name
(So close the door and lock it tight
Then I'll know your safe tonight
Turn on the song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close)
Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know your safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close
She is in my bloodstream tonight she's leading me
The moon is filled with reds and blues
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Trying out my fangs, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name

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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
i love the line...'turn on a song that means the most'...coz everyone has that one song that means alot to them.
i love this song, it's so pretty and well done.
I love the way he uses metaphors in this. I agree, everyone does have a song that's special, and I think he's saying that he wants the person to know that he wants them to think of him, and the whole thing with the chorus, I think it's possibly a dream he's having about her, and that he can't stop thinking of her because she IS a part of him. Oh, and I think the line goes, "I follow where she leads into the darkness, DRYING UP MY VEINS..." sounds more like that than the fangs thing...[clare]
