@[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.
This one's going out
to everybody in the place
Biggin' up their chest, screwing up their face
Listening to the jungle, the jungle drum and bass
Gonna get your karma when you're old and grey
If you see this music here to stay
This is what I wanna say
Drum and bass and jungle will never die
To all the girls and guys who like to drink and get high
Wanna do the best that the money can buy
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hold on wait a minute
I'm on the mic, get with it
In it to win it, gonna take you outta limits
I set it come on set it, kick and smash it
Gonna chant any music with a gimmick with the lyric
Come on here's the place to be
And she got a taste of me
Whether doggy style or whether facing me
Looking for a good time, I'm the guy to see
Too much of my will never make you O.D
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
to everybody in the place
Biggin' up their chest, screwing up their face
Listening to the jungle, the jungle drum and bass
Gonna get your karma when you're old and grey
If you see this music here to stay
This is what I wanna say
Drum and bass and jungle will never die
To all the girls and guys who like to drink and get high
Wanna do the best that the money can buy
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hold on wait a minute
I'm on the mic, get with it
In it to win it, gonna take you outta limits
I set it come on set it, kick and smash it
Gonna chant any music with a gimmick with the lyric
Come on here's the place to be
And she got a taste of me
Whether doggy style or whether facing me
Looking for a good time, I'm the guy to see
Too much of my will never make you O.D
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis
Hook me up with the shit that killed Elvis

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.

“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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
