@[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.
So this is what you mean
and this is how you feel
So this is how you see
and this is how you breathe
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
So this is what you mean
and this is how you feel
So this how you see
and this is how you breate
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
Beneath the deep blue sea
Touching every breath
All a slight of hand
For everything you left
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
Sometimes, i give myself for you
Sometimes, i know down deep...
and this is how you feel
So this is how you see
and this is how you breathe
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
So this is what you mean
and this is how you feel
So this how you see
and this is how you breate
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
Beneath the deep blue sea
Touching every breath
All a slight of hand
For everything you left
Sometimes, i know
Sometimes, i go down deep...
Ohhh...
Sometimes, i give myself for you
Sometimes, i know down deep...

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.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

While the obvious connections with suicide or alcoholism could be drawn easily, more subtly this song could be about someone who views the world through a negative lens constantly and how as much as the writer tries to show the beauty in the world, this person refuses to see it. It's one or another between the rope and the bottle. There is no good option for this person. They can't see it. Skiba sings it in a kind of exasperated way like He's tired of hearing this negative view constantly and just allowing that person to continue feeling the way they feel knowing he can't do anything about it. You can hear it when he says maybe you're a vampire.
Another Love

I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
It really affects me when hearing this song. It's like there's a dark part of me that should be opened up.
its like trying to understand the other person..
I just simply love this song, I can't understand why. But I love it! There's something acout the accoustic guitar, and everything in it... I like at the end, he faintly sings "deep inside of you..."
Oh gosh. This song's been tangled inside my head for years and I didn't even know who's the singer and what's the title until not so long ago. I'm swooned by its rhythm. Indeed, I'm practically like it from the first instance. Somehow I just think the song is so real without putting too much words :)
