@[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.
Gauge out, your eyes, pull your, heart to the floor,
with my heart my skin my kiss, stand back drop to your knees,
I'll stand back as you bleed with my heart my skin my kiss
This blade it feels so cold, baby hold me while, I'm shaking,
This knife has pierced my soul, I sit alone while, I'm shaking
And yes I'll laugh out for you, with blind eyes, I'm shaking...
Gauge out, your eyes, pull your heart to the floor,
Sweetness loves me, tastes me, hears me,
Stand back drop to your knees,
I'll stand back as you bleed,
Sweetness loves me, tastes me, hears me...
This blade it feels so cold, baby hold me while, I'm shaking,
This knife has pierced my soul, I sit alone while, I'm shaking,
And yes I'll laugh out for you, with blind eyes I'm shaking...
Now take me out of this place... Now take me out of this place...
Out, take me out, take me out, take me, out,
Out, take me out, take me out, take me, out...
Take me, take me, take me out...
with my heart my skin my kiss, stand back drop to your knees,
I'll stand back as you bleed with my heart my skin my kiss
This blade it feels so cold, baby hold me while, I'm shaking,
This knife has pierced my soul, I sit alone while, I'm shaking
And yes I'll laugh out for you, with blind eyes, I'm shaking...
Gauge out, your eyes, pull your heart to the floor,
Sweetness loves me, tastes me, hears me,
Stand back drop to your knees,
I'll stand back as you bleed,
Sweetness loves me, tastes me, hears me...
This blade it feels so cold, baby hold me while, I'm shaking,
This knife has pierced my soul, I sit alone while, I'm shaking,
And yes I'll laugh out for you, with blind eyes I'm shaking...
Now take me out of this place... Now take me out of this place...
Out, take me out, take me out, take me, out,
Out, take me out, take me out, take me, out...
Take me, take me, take me out...

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
This song is simply amazing. The keyboard intro takes u to a place of hope, which is crushed by the ear piercing screamo to come! It really hits the spot and helps get some shit off ur chest u know?
Completely agreed. It really does make you feel better! Try listening to it when you need to blow off steam. I find it got stuck in my head after an argument with my mom, or a bad test grade, or even when I'm in a good mood after getting my girlfriend, getting large tip after work or even to go to sleep to. It just makes you feel good no matter what.

this song.. omg. at like 57 seconds i swear it makes u want to jummp around and grab a mic and just screammmm i love this song :]
What I think this song is explaining is the torture that Jesus Christ went through for us. And while all this was happening we just sat and watched.
Yes, concured all around! As someone else commented, "Matthew 5:29, If your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it to the floor; better to loose one part of your body than to have your whole body go to Hell".
this song might be about cutting, im not completely sure, just kinda getting it from the lines: "This blade it feels so cold" and: "This knife has pierced my soul, I sit alone while, I'm shaking" when ur cutting you start shaking form the initial shock of the pain... just a guess...
could be
this song id beautiful i mean it describes alot of wat can happen wen u lose a loved one or they lose you...
I think its about suicide
oh wait. nvm.. lol
i really had no idea what it was about except maybe suicide or something but not i agree with keenwolf93 i think its about what jesus went through too! maybe its both haha great thinking
