@[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.
Bleeding out your eyes
There's no way to see the light
And clutching old and tired beliefs
Will bring you nothing but grief in the end
I know this sounds pedestrian
But live your life like a chameleon
My conclusions are simple but true
Body bag, grocery bag
Are you ____ full of some sort of ceaseless spirit?
Where I go, I don't know, but I hope that the weather's good
And I can live with the guilt
Bleeding out your mouth
There's no way to get the word out
And clutching old and tired beliefs
Will bring you nothing but grief in the end
I know this sounds pedestrian
But that's all I ever wanted, man
My conclusions are simple but true
Body bag, grocery bag
Are you ____ full of some sort of ceaseless spirit?
Where I go, I don't know, but I hope that the weather's good
And I can live with the guilt
I know it's hard to admit when you're wrong
you better pray you're right, you said not, you said I'm not hearing you
What bridge do I have to cross to wear a bag of self-righteousness
'Cause I'll burn when I get there
Bleeding out your eyes
There's no way to see the light
And clutching old and tired beliefs
Will bring you nothing but grief in the end
I know this sounds pedestrian
But that's all I ever wanted, man
My conclusions are simple but true
Wanted man
Pedestrian

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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
