@[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.
The pain of love
Won't break us up
We don't need your salvation
The pain of love
Will never stop
We are our own creation
The pain of love
Lives in our heart
It's deeper than the ocean
The pain of love
Waits in the dark
We take it in slow motion
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain of love, love, love
The pain of love
In all of us
It hits you like a hammer
The pain of love
We can turn off
Let's celebrate the drama
The pain of love
Don't let us crush
We will be all forgiven
The pain of love I want to touch
Without it, it's not worth living
And we go on, on and we go, on on and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain of love, love, love
We climb the mountains
Walk the desert for our love
Let's make a pact tonight so we can feel this pain of love forever
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain, of love, love, love
The pain of love, the pain of love, the pain of love
Won't break us up
We don't need your salvation
The pain of love
Will never stop
We are our own creation
The pain of love
Lives in our heart
It's deeper than the ocean
The pain of love
Waits in the dark
We take it in slow motion
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain of love, love, love
The pain of love
In all of us
It hits you like a hammer
The pain of love
We can turn off
Let's celebrate the drama
The pain of love
Don't let us crush
We will be all forgiven
The pain of love I want to touch
Without it, it's not worth living
And we go on, on and we go, on on and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain of love, love, love
We climb the mountains
Walk the desert for our love
Let's make a pact tonight so we can feel this pain of love forever
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
And we go on, and we go on, and on and on and on
We don't belong, we don't belong, belong to anyone
The pain of love will last forever
Promise me, promise me
We celebrate the pain together
The pain, of love, love, love
The pain of love, the pain of love, the pain of love

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,
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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.
