This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You know you're not a strong man
And you're just about to cry
Hang on, hang on
It's alright, it's alright
You worry about the future
The sign said, "yoga class for cats"
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
And the dynamite is waiting
'Cause they bankrupted the sky
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
Break your mother's back
If you step on the cracks
And everybody knows
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there
The carnival closed down
And you're just about to cry
Hang on, hang on
It's alright, it's alright
You worry about the future
The sign said, "yoga class for cats"
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
And the dynamite is waiting
'Cause they bankrupted the sky
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
Break your mother's back
If you step on the cracks
And everybody knows
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there
The carnival closed down

Holiday

@[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 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.
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
the "yoga class for cats" thing... my friend jon and i had a theory that it's really... "yoga class forcasts" but without the 'c'... it made a lot of sense at the time. something about the "you worry about the future" line... let me think about why and i'll get back to you.
