In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Candles aflame
Drank all the red wine
Dancing to jazz, you know you keep me in time.
And your skin's so soft.
Lips are so wet.
Afraid to move a muscle
Yeah I'm holding my breath.
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always come for you
Got it all down, got it all right
Putting moves together cause it's Saturday night
And I'm all about you
You feel it for me
Can't wait a second now
What will it be?
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always I always come
This could be the place
My fingers through your hair
And now we're getting somewhere
Turning off the lights
Fighting for your lives
Everything's all right
Holding my breath
Biting my tongue
If you don't understand it
Well, it won't last long
I've got, nothing to try
You haven't seen yet
Move a little closer cause it's your best bet
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always I always come
Don't know how
Don't know why
You're gonna make it alright
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always come for you
Drank all the red wine
Dancing to jazz, you know you keep me in time.
And your skin's so soft.
Lips are so wet.
Afraid to move a muscle
Yeah I'm holding my breath.
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always come for you
Got it all down, got it all right
Putting moves together cause it's Saturday night
And I'm all about you
You feel it for me
Can't wait a second now
What will it be?
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always I always come
This could be the place
My fingers through your hair
And now we're getting somewhere
Turning off the lights
Fighting for your lives
Everything's all right
Holding my breath
Biting my tongue
If you don't understand it
Well, it won't last long
I've got, nothing to try
You haven't seen yet
Move a little closer cause it's your best bet
And you asked me what I said?
And I tell you, I tell you now
Are you coming with me (coming with me)?
I always come for you
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always I always come
Don't know how
Don't know why
You're gonna make it alright
Coming with me, are you coming with me
I always come for you

This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

@[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.
yeah ... this song is awesome. the lyrics aren't particularly brilliant or anything, but it's awesome no less. I dug it the first time I heard it.
