This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm going to see some friends from out of state
The very trip you were supposed to take
A while ago
But it fell through
Like all of you
Like all of you
Thought I'd make the drive
But a free plane ride is in the air
And just like that my fear of it disappeared
Like all of you
Like all of you
And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low
Once I can see straight I might move
Somewhere cold
Seattle or the Bay area; to see your ghost
What's left of you
What's left of you
And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low
Found a letter from a man I might have met
Addressed to you
And I'll steal the words he ended with:
I miss you
And I do
Miss you
And I do
High and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low
The very trip you were supposed to take
A while ago
But it fell through
Like all of you
Like all of you
Thought I'd make the drive
But a free plane ride is in the air
And just like that my fear of it disappeared
Like all of you
Like all of you
And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low
Once I can see straight I might move
Somewhere cold
Seattle or the Bay area; to see your ghost
What's left of you
What's left of you
And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low
Found a letter from a man I might have met
Addressed to you
And I'll steal the words he ended with:
I miss you
And I do
Miss you
And I do
High and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low

@[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.
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."

Thanks wolf cub. You bring up a good point. I went through the verses and put what I have down now.
Verse 1 "I'm going to see some friends from out of state. The very trip that you were suppose to take a while ago, but it fell through. Like all of you, like all of you."
She was going to see friends, but somehow didn't get to see them. Now he must see them to tell them of her passing.
Verse 2 "Thought I'd make the drive, but a free plane ride is in the air and just like that my fear of it disappeared. Like all of you, like all of you."
A plane ride is discounted or free in cases of bereavement. His fear of flying disappears like how she disappears from his life.
Chorus "And I look high and low for yesterday. High and low for you and I high and low."
He is remembering the memories and old times he had with her.
Verse 4 "Once I can see straight I might move somewhere cold. Seattle or the Bay area to see your ghost. What's left of you. What's left of you."
He can't see straight because tears blur the vision. What's left of her is in him, and he is moving somewhere cold so he can see his breath in the air. Breathing is needed for life, and she is his breath. So being able to see the condensing of his breath, is in someway seeing her. This might seem a little far fetched, but I think it fits well.
Verse 5 "Found a letter from a man I might have met addressed to you, and I'll steal the words he ended with, 'I miss you, and I do. I miss you, and I do.'"
When he is going through her belongings, he finds a letter she kept that he wrote for her. It was a love letter talking about how he wants to be with her, but now the letter to him means he misses her and needs her more than before. He "might have met" because he is in a different state in his life than he was when he originally wrote the letter.
Some parts of this might seem a bit reaching, but with this the song seems to be more meaningful to me. It's a great song.
