@[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 my god
What have we learned?
Oh my god
We’re doomed from the start
Oh my god
What have we learned?
Oh my god
We’re doomed from the start
Its time to admit we’re wrong and move on
Kick our habits self improvement
Is anyone getting nervous?
WE SHOULD ALL BE AFRAID TO DIE
I don’t care as long as we… as long as we get there get there…
Fought, you fought and you got what you want out of me
Caught, don’t get caught you’ll be fucked if you know what I mean
Are you scared you can’t tell me what your life’s about?
Thought provoking, it’s all we need
It’s all we want…
The fear of god in us in all of us
What have we learned?
Oh my god
We’re doomed from the start
Oh my god
What have we learned?
Oh my god
We’re doomed from the start
Its time to admit we’re wrong and move on
Kick our habits self improvement
Is anyone getting nervous?
WE SHOULD ALL BE AFRAID TO DIE
I don’t care as long as we… as long as we get there get there…
Fought, you fought and you got what you want out of me
Caught, don’t get caught you’ll be fucked if you know what I mean
Are you scared you can’t tell me what your life’s about?
Thought provoking, it’s all we need
It’s all we want…
The fear of god in us in all of us

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
the main theme of the song (i believe) is fear, mainly concerning life's purpose/religious beliefs with the afterlife. Many of fear before's lyrics are about the singer's uncertaintly and or disbelief in god. and this song is for the most part saying, the people that believe in god only believe in him because with a belief so intense as christianity, you can make excuses to certain unanswerable questions. like the meaning of life. christians say, its to live god's will. he says, no thats not the reason, and if u didnt have a "god" you wouldnt kno the reason.
the ending line is powerful. like when i first heard it and knew what he was saying, chills went down my spine. Hearing him scream it live whilest giving the sky (the idea of god id assume) the middle finger. Because we all have a fear of god. Whether its a fear in the sense that we try to act good as to aviod the wrath of god, or the fear that god doesnt exist. and all the speaker is doing, is saying fuck it, im telling you your god is just something you use for your daily excuses whether u kno it or not.
personally i dont kno whether i agree with him. I was batized catholic, and have been going to catholic and christian schools since 3rd grade (im currently a senior). I never really questions catholosisms beliefs until around early last school year, and as of now i am in a state were i couldnt tell you what i believe. I would hate to be an atheist, because that belief statement just seems so depressing to me. But alot of the things and beliefs of a god, or even the supernatural cant nest in my mind. I am searching for an answer, one i fear ill never find.
But this song is trying to tell me that god is bullshit and by living under him you live in fear. I think i live in fear now more than i did when i called myself a catholic.
