@[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.
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
And how could anyone
You are in my dreams
Half human, half machine
You with someone else that I have felt and seen
I cannot rest, or my consciousness contest
Looking right through the lens
From winter brings the spring again
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
And we fall asleep again with ties to mend
So please let the cleaning begin with evolution
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
You are in my dreams
Half human, half machine
Looking right through the lens
From winter brings the spring again
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
And how could anyone
You are in my dreams
Half human, half machine
You with someone else that I have felt and seen
I cannot rest, or my consciousness contest
Looking right through the lens
From winter brings the spring again
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
And we fall asleep again with ties to mend
So please let the cleaning begin with evolution
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
Hold my breath 'til communication is
Only just a test
You are in my dreams
Half human, half machine
Looking right through the lens
From winter brings the spring again
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio on
Infinite silence
flowing right in with the dawn
This is wrong, this is wrong
And I cannot sleep without the radio

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
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.
infinite silence rolling, riding with the dawn this is wrong, this is wrong and i cannot sleep without the radio on
and how could anyone you are in my dreams half human, half machine you are someone else that i have felt and seen i cannot rest on my consciousness; contest looking right through the lens from winter brings the spring again
infinite silence rolling, riding with the dawn this is wrong, this is wrong and i cannot sleep without the radio on
and we fall asleep again with testament so please let the cleaning begin evolution...
hold my breath 'til communication leaves only just a test hold my breath 'til communication leaves only just a test hold my breath 'til communication leaves only just a test
you are in my dreams half human, half machine looking right through the lens from winter brings the spring again
I fixed the two lines.
i think the "half human half machine" part may be saying something about how his old lover is sometimes affectionate and emotional to him, while other times can be completely distant and sort of going through the motions. when people break up there is the switch between beginnign to move on and becoming cold to the other person, while still having lingering feelings for them.
anthony green uses alot of season changing symbolism.
the thing i love about this song is that i get a tingling feeling as soon as the song slows down when he says "hold my breath..."
it's amazing
Infinite silence flowing right in with the dawn This is wrong, this is wrong And I cannot sleep without the radio on
(((Silence brings him back to his pain of his relationship that is crumbling or crumbled and he doesn't feel it's rigth that they haven't resolved this pain.)))
And how could anyone You are in my dreams Half human, half machine
(((he still sees the part of her that cared for him, but another part of her has grown distant and emotionless for him)))
You with someone else that I have felt and seen I cannot rest, or my consciousness contest Looking right through the lens From winter brings the spring again
(((He fears she'll find someone else or that she already has. But i think it's the former because the 2nd time he leaves this part out. So she probably hasn't found someone else, it's just a fear.)))
And we fall asleep again with ties to mend So please let the cleaning begin with evolution
(((They've left things unfinished he hopes those will be taken care of over time through his own evolution or through them sorting it out and getting this problem resolved.)))
Hold my breath 'til communication is Only just a test Hold my breath 'til communication is Only just a test Hold my breath 'til communication is Only just a test
(((The test is who will come to the other first to sort out this problem to get back together or to simply end the pain and suffering and be friends.)))

...this isn't exactly right surely, but the interpretation above was horrid.
yeah thers 2 videos out right now i listened to the reallly really crappy version
thats just what i heard i know its absolutely terrible
not too sure what this song about but im liking it, very awesome. and i think its "you're with someone i have felt and seen." not "you are someone"
