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"
They sit next to me in all my classes
They wear these silly little skirts
So I can look right at their asses
Bleached blonde hair
And some bright red lipstick
You can be a high school slut then, too
They're giving head to their body building boyfriends
To gain their popularity
They're stuck up high school girls
They're fucked up little girls
They're stuck up high school girls
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Watch your back
Keep your head held high
I'm about to do a stuck up high school girl drive-by
The world can do without a snotty little princess
So take your ego and get the fuck out of my face
They're stuck up high school girls
They're fucked up little girls
They're stuck up high school girls
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
You're all
They're all
They wear these silly little skirts
So I can look right at their asses
Bleached blonde hair
And some bright red lipstick
You can be a high school slut then, too
They're giving head to their body building boyfriends
To gain their popularity
They're stuck up high school girls
They're fucked up little girls
They're stuck up high school girls
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Watch your back
Keep your head held high
I'm about to do a stuck up high school girl drive-by
The world can do without a snotty little princess
So take your ego and get the fuck out of my face
They're stuck up high school girls
They're fucked up little girls
They're stuck up high school girls
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
You're all
They're all
