@[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.
I've never felt this way before
There's nothing else I could want more
Than something real, only passion can reveal yeah
With body and soul, I'm used to controlling
Every, everything
Now, I can let go, let down my guard
And we'll see how far this love can go
[Chorus:]
I surrender my heart, I'm giving up
And I don't want to fight, I just want to love
I surrender it all, I'm giving in
To the power of love - surrender
This feels to good, can't bring me down
Feels like I could never touch ground
And how I've waited, true love anticipated yeahyeah
With body and mind, I know that there's time
For every, everything
Now, I can let go, let down my guard
And we'll see how far this love can go
[Chorus]
And it's just to strong and I can't hold on
What used to be and clear to me
It's just a fantasy
I'm breaking down right here right now
I want you to know gonna take you slow just
Let the feeling flow
I surrender
I surrender my heart, I'm giving up
I don't want to fight
Let it flow, just want to now
I surrender it all, I'm giving in
To the power of love
I'm giving in baby
[Chorus]
Cause it's just to strong and I can't hold on
What used to be, just in clear to me
I'm breaking down, right here right now
Want you to know gonna let the feelings flow
I surrender
My heart my heart
I don't want to fight no more
My heart my heart
Yeah, yeah, yah
There's nothing else I could want more
Than something real, only passion can reveal yeah
With body and soul, I'm used to controlling
Every, everything
Now, I can let go, let down my guard
And we'll see how far this love can go
[Chorus:]
I surrender my heart, I'm giving up
And I don't want to fight, I just want to love
I surrender it all, I'm giving in
To the power of love - surrender
This feels to good, can't bring me down
Feels like I could never touch ground
And how I've waited, true love anticipated yeahyeah
With body and mind, I know that there's time
For every, everything
Now, I can let go, let down my guard
And we'll see how far this love can go
[Chorus]
And it's just to strong and I can't hold on
What used to be and clear to me
It's just a fantasy
I'm breaking down right here right now
I want you to know gonna take you slow just
Let the feeling flow
I surrender
I surrender my heart, I'm giving up
I don't want to fight
Let it flow, just want to now
I surrender it all, I'm giving in
To the power of love
I'm giving in baby
[Chorus]
Cause it's just to strong and I can't hold on
What used to be, just in clear to me
I'm breaking down, right here right now
Want you to know gonna let the feelings flow
I surrender
My heart my heart
I don't want to fight no more
My heart my heart
Yeah, yeah, yah

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."
