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"
Since a little nigga, I've been the nuisance Don't give a fuck about your two cents
Get comfortable, ladies and gents Like, why you so tense
Like, tsk tsk Time is running out
Like TikTok, I'm tapping Tenacious tempos across the tabletop
To cool my temper Cold as December
Like, do you remember? This little nigga born in September
I'm bringing the house down timber I'm a star, watch me shine and glimmer
The lights are dimmer You can't see me, but I can see you
I beat you bloody purple and blue And leave you in the ICU
Still doing badmon tings Diamonds don't dance, they sing
I'm at your doorbell, I let it ring Like, ding, how is you doing
Nevermind, I don't care I'm just trying to break the ice
I'll tell you what it's like I'll tell you what this is
This some Azrael 2 shit Since a little nigga, I've been the nuisance
Don't give a fuck about your two cents
I creep at night with the Reaper Scythe To take your life, well sike
I don't really flex what I got Unless you tryna step in my box
Don't step in my bubble Now you in trouble, you wanna tussle
Now I got bloody knuckles Get out my face, I'm showing off
Like a bitch is lace Yo, shawty, yo, bust down, look, busted it up
I know this lil' shawty, she look good in green
I call a buttercup, fuck is up Pulling up in a red truck
See, I don't give no fucks This shit is scary
Got you yelling bloody Mary Now your name is in the obituary
You died in the morning Now your family mourning
Let this be a warning Now the tables is turning
I'm still learning, still earning
What is this?
This some Azrael2 shit
Don't give a fuck about your two cents
Since a little nigga, I've been the nuisance
But really, I'm still doing badmon tings my
Diamonds don't dance, they sing I'm at your doorbell, I let it ring
I look through the peephole, open the door
And stomp a sinkhole when you head and
Leave your melon leaking Shit, Azraels creeping
Get comfortable, ladies and gents Like, why you so tense
Like, tsk tsk Time is running out
Like TikTok, I'm tapping Tenacious tempos across the tabletop
To cool my temper Cold as December
Like, do you remember? This little nigga born in September
I'm bringing the house down timber I'm a star, watch me shine and glimmer
The lights are dimmer You can't see me, but I can see you
I beat you bloody purple and blue And leave you in the ICU
Still doing badmon tings Diamonds don't dance, they sing
I'm at your doorbell, I let it ring Like, ding, how is you doing
Nevermind, I don't care I'm just trying to break the ice
I'll tell you what it's like I'll tell you what this is
This some Azrael 2 shit Since a little nigga, I've been the nuisance
Don't give a fuck about your two cents
I creep at night with the Reaper Scythe To take your life, well sike
I don't really flex what I got Unless you tryna step in my box
Don't step in my bubble Now you in trouble, you wanna tussle
Now I got bloody knuckles Get out my face, I'm showing off
Like a bitch is lace Yo, shawty, yo, bust down, look, busted it up
I know this lil' shawty, she look good in green
I call a buttercup, fuck is up Pulling up in a red truck
See, I don't give no fucks This shit is scary
Got you yelling bloody Mary Now your name is in the obituary
You died in the morning Now your family mourning
Let this be a warning Now the tables is turning
I'm still learning, still earning
What is this?
This some Azrael2 shit
Don't give a fuck about your two cents
Since a little nigga, I've been the nuisance
But really, I'm still doing badmon tings my
Diamonds don't dance, they sing I'm at your doorbell, I let it ring
I look through the peephole, open the door
And stomp a sinkhole when you head and
Leave your melon leaking Shit, Azraels creeping

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” 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.
