@[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.
Mom and dad are not happy, they fight every night
They can't even get through just one day without a fight
Mom and dad don't notice me, they work six days a week
Sundays we all go to church, but we don't even speak
Rebel! Rebel!
Your parents have failed you, and I’m here to tell you
Rebel! Rebel!
The world has abused you, and I’m here to choose you!
My step dad, he hates me so he hits me all the time
But when we’re around people, he acts like we’re all fine
My real dad, he left us all one day when I was four
Mom got drunk and told me that my dad loved me no more
Rebel! Rebel!
Your parents have failed you, and I’m here to tell you
Rebel! Rebel!
The world has abused you, and I’m here to choose you!
The blood has poured out, just like dust
Just read the writing on the wall
You’re so consumed with your lust
You do not fear my word at all
It’s time I break your family curse
Of lies, neglect, abuse, and shame
You'll have to give me your life, first
You’ll never be the same!
You’re not alone anymore, if you knock I'll open the door
Don't forget about the golden rule!
Love me with all your heart!
If you give me just that one request, we will never be apart!
Your life, it means so much to me, you've been abused in every way
Everyone on earth has let you down, now come, try me
They're breaking, they're taking you down,
They're willing to kill you right now, they're
They're, they're breaking, they're taking you down,
They are willing to kill you right now
They're, they're
They're, they're
They're, they're
They're
They can't even get through just one day without a fight
Mom and dad don't notice me, they work six days a week
Sundays we all go to church, but we don't even speak
Rebel! Rebel!
Your parents have failed you, and I’m here to tell you
Rebel! Rebel!
The world has abused you, and I’m here to choose you!
My step dad, he hates me so he hits me all the time
But when we’re around people, he acts like we’re all fine
My real dad, he left us all one day when I was four
Mom got drunk and told me that my dad loved me no more
Rebel! Rebel!
Your parents have failed you, and I’m here to tell you
Rebel! Rebel!
The world has abused you, and I’m here to choose you!

They're, they're breaking, they're taking you down,
They are willing to kill you right now
They're, they're
They're, they're
They're, they're
They're

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.
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."
