@[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'm looking back
I've gone astray
I've chosen my way, but have I made a mistake
Here I am longing for shelter
Relinquishing everything
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Am I just simply afraid
Am I just simply afraid
I have chosen my way
But have I made a mistake
Here I am longing for shelter
Relinquishing everything
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Far from the world that I once knew
Everything that I love is everything that I hate
Lost
Far from the world that I once knew
Why must I despise entirely
Everything that I love is everything that I hate
Have my ambitions led me astray
Or am I blatantly afraid
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
I've gone astray
I've chosen my way, but have I made a mistake
Here I am longing for shelter
Relinquishing everything
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Am I just simply afraid
Am I just simply afraid
I have chosen my way
But have I made a mistake
Here I am longing for shelter
Relinquishing everything
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Far from the world that I once knew
Everything that I love is everything that I hate
Lost
Far from the world that I once knew
Why must I despise entirely
Everything that I love is everything that I hate
Have my ambitions led me astray
Or am I blatantly afraid
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
Hold your place and just keep still
Remind yourself you must fulfill your aspirations
