@[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.
I can't change who I am
Out on your own, cold and alone again
Can this be what you really wanted, baby?
Now that you're gone, feel like myself again
Grieving the things I can't repair and willing
Do not you blame it on me and set your guilt free
I don't wanna hold you back now
I can't change who I am, not this time
I won't lie to keep you near me
And in this short life there's no time to waste on giving up
My love wasn't enough
And you can blame it on me and set your guilt free
And I don't wanna hold you back now, love
Ooh ooh ooh
Out on your own, cold and alone again
Can this be what you really wanted, baby?
Now that you're gone, feel like myself again
Grieving the things I can't repair and willing
Do not you blame it on me and set your guilt free
I don't wanna hold you back now
I can't change who I am, not this time
I won't lie to keep you near me
And in this short life there's no time to waste on giving up
My love wasn't enough
And you can blame it on me and set your guilt free
And I don't wanna hold you back now, love
Ooh ooh ooh

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This song is freaking awesome. It was a redone version of Mozart's "Lacrimosa", and it simply turned out beautiful. The choir, the gigantic orchestra... pure genius.
As for the meaning, I guess it's about how Amy (or whatever) feels bad and guilty for controlling someone's life and just wants to let them go now since she knew they were suffering. She's guilty, and that's what I see it as... but for the this song, the lyrics don't matter! If you stripped the voice of the song, it would be AWESOME!!! I wonder if they have a program that does that...
