@[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.
Hey you, in the middle of the night with the lights on
Do you believe that you could love?
Hey you, with your head up in the clouds and your eyes closed
Did you ever think we'd grow?
Hey you, throwing everything away just to save face
And the silence of it shows
Hey you, you can wish it all away in a heartbeat
But is it free, is it free, is it free, free, free, free?
Don't you stop everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I say to you, "Would you ever want to walk
Away from here if you really loved?"
Believe now whatever you want to believe
But you can't believe a word
I said, "I can't believe a word"
Hey you, still silence in the eyes of the idols
Did we believe that you could know?
Hey you, doing everything you can just to blend in
What was there to show?
One day, we are never [Incomprehensible] when it's over
Until I raise my hand
Hey you, you could never know your way like you wanted
Just set us free, us free, us free, free, free, free
Don't you stop, everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I said, "I can't believe a word"
Don't you stop, everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I say to you, would you ever want to walk
Away from here if you really loved?
Believe now whatever you want to believe
But you can't believe a word
I said, "I can't believe a word"
Do you believe that you could love?
Hey you, with your head up in the clouds and your eyes closed
Did you ever think we'd grow?
Hey you, throwing everything away just to save face
And the silence of it shows
Hey you, you can wish it all away in a heartbeat
But is it free, is it free, is it free, free, free, free?
Don't you stop everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I say to you, "Would you ever want to walk
Away from here if you really loved?"
Believe now whatever you want to believe
But you can't believe a word
I said, "I can't believe a word"
Hey you, still silence in the eyes of the idols
Did we believe that you could know?
Hey you, doing everything you can just to blend in
What was there to show?
One day, we are never [Incomprehensible] when it's over
Until I raise my hand
Hey you, you could never know your way like you wanted
Just set us free, us free, us free, free, free, free
Don't you stop, everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I said, "I can't believe a word"
Don't you stop, everybody wants you
But you can't say no if you even try
What you see inside if you could believe it
But you can't believe a single word
I say to you, would you ever want to walk
Away from here if you really loved?
Believe now whatever you want to believe
But you can't believe a word
I said, "I can't believe a word"

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
