This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The devil may smile with an angels face
A cat may be stolen of its grace
They say it's just a matter of time and place
A man may be less than an animal
The antichrist write up the honor roll
The tightrope walker take the final fall
(at his house, in the bathroom, on a holiday, and that's in the news)
Oh, the things you see
Makes ignorance bliss for you and me, yeah,
When arrogance does publicity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around
The begging boy becomes the begging man
The zealot never saves the sacrificial lamb
And a child want's to know if the Candyman can
Everybody want's the fancy car
And we've all been told not to run too far
But everybody wants to be a rock'n'roll star
Oh, the things you see
Makes arrogance seem the way to be, yeah,
When ignorance spreads conformity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around
A cat may be stolen of its grace
They say it's just a matter of time and place
A man may be less than an animal
The antichrist write up the honor roll
The tightrope walker take the final fall
(at his house, in the bathroom, on a holiday, and that's in the news)
Oh, the things you see
Makes ignorance bliss for you and me, yeah,
When arrogance does publicity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around
The begging boy becomes the begging man
The zealot never saves the sacrificial lamb
And a child want's to know if the Candyman can
Everybody want's the fancy car
And we've all been told not to run too far
But everybody wants to be a rock'n'roll star
Oh, the things you see
Makes arrogance seem the way to be, yeah,
When ignorance spreads conformity,
Smiling happily
It's a merry go round and around and around

@[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.

Page

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.
