@[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.
Drink the blood
Shadows cast
Formless flesh
Your disguise
Divine Hell
Ritual
Crush your shape
Unholy dance
The captive angel
Flailing still
Inside the dark
The dark inside
Taste of the necrotic cadaver
See the blood
Obscene prayer
Intoxicate
Seraph pure
Evil Sublime
Agony
Purified by
My perversion
The captive angel
Flailing still
Inside the dark
The dark inside
Taste of the necrotic cadaver
A perfect suggestion
You understand despite
The words you can really hear
My carnal intention
Unfolds before your very eyes
The night is cold and clear
I cast my gaze to see
Your voice is warm and near
But it means nothing to me
Sea breeze turns to gale
It's harder now to see
Your words are like a veil
Hours drip by
Time burning
Your wine spills from
The glass you barely hold
Disrobing
Sublimely
Reaching down to claim the prize
The night is cold and clear
I cast my gaze to see
Your voice is warm and near
But it means nothing to me
Sea breeze turns to gale
It's harder now to see
Your words are like a veil
But they mean nothing at all
Breathing
Scratching
From the inside
Untouchable
Unreachable
Uncertainty
(Solo Mendonca)
The night is no disguise
The darkness is a mirror
I was feeling blind
Everything seemed new to me
You made up my mind
Lies were really truth you see

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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,
