@[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.
Each time I hurt you
I see your scars
I'm reminded of all
You've done
Now I'm in the same place
Right where I started
Caught in the things that
Will only destroy me
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me?
And now I see that
I'm the one
Who put the
Nails in you
Now I'm in the same place
Right where I started
Caught in the things that
Will only destroy me
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me
Something about you
The more I let you in
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me?
When I saw what I was doing
I'm the one who put you there
I see your scars
I'm reminded of all
You've done
Now I'm in the same place
Right where I started
Caught in the things that
Will only destroy me
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me?
And now I see that
I'm the one
Who put the
Nails in you
Now I'm in the same place
Right where I started
Caught in the things that
Will only destroy me
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me
Something about you
The more I let you in
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do I always fail you
So now I'm here again
Calling for you
Why do you love me?
When I saw what I was doing
I'm the one who put you there

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/

ummm... it's about Jesus. i'm pretty sure it is.
Yes, that was what I was going to say that because, no matter how much we try we can't help but sin.<br /> <br /> The guy feels guilty that jesus was cruscified, saying it's his fault <br /> "And now I see that<br /> I'm the one<br /> Who put the<br /> Nails in you"<br /> <br /> He's looking back at all he's sinned and now realizes, or believes that it's his fault jesus was kput on a cross.<br /> <br /> "When I saw what I was doing<br /> I'm the one who put you there"<br /> <br /> Who know maybe it is about a girl though :]<br />
