@[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 will dig a hole
Save my pennies for a rainy day
I will dig a hole
Saving pennies for a rainy day
I'm not scared
I will build a wall
Sensing trouble from a mile away
I will build a wall
Saw it coming from a mile away
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
Try wearin' your insides out
I don't even try, I know I have seen the best I'll have
I don't even try
I will just play dumb
I won't hear a single word that's said
I will bite my tongue
Never sing another song again
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
Try wearing your insides out
I don't even try, I know I have seen the best I'll have
I don't even try
Never been one to take my chances
I don't even try
Clouds are coming
Air get's heavy
Looks like trouble on a rainy day
Sun starts sinking
Can't see my shadow
Looks likes trouble on a rainy day
Holes uncovered
Walls will crumble
All spells trouble on a rainy day
Save my pennies for a rainy day
I will dig a hole
Saving pennies for a rainy day
I'm not scared
I will build a wall
Sensing trouble from a mile away
I will build a wall
Saw it coming from a mile away
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
Try wearin' your insides out
I don't even try, I know I have seen the best I'll have
I don't even try
I will just play dumb
I won't hear a single word that's said
I will bite my tongue
Never sing another song again
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
Try wearing your insides out
I don't even try, I know I have seen the best I'll have
I don't even try
Never been one to take my chances
I don't even try
Clouds are coming
Air get's heavy
Looks like trouble on a rainy day
Sun starts sinking
Can't see my shadow
Looks likes trouble on a rainy day
Holes uncovered
Walls will crumble
All spells trouble on a rainy day

i absolutely love this song. to me, it's just trying to protect yourself from any hurt. like, if there's any chance of something happening, he's going to prepare himself for it so he won't end up getting hurt. he's planning for it so much, though, it's probably ruining everything.
this song is exactly how i feel right now. it's like, i'm so jaded i don't even try anymore and i don't let myself get happy when things go right because i know they'll get worse.
idk.
..this was the first guster song i heard and now i'm hooked.
