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"
Heat seeps in holes
Heat seeps in souls
Sweat soaked yellow shroud
Breathless protection
Daggers where the eyes should be
Blood running down your cheeks
Eyes in black suns direction
Feet burning insects stinging
Sweat soaked yellow shroud
Breathless protection
Daggers where the eyes should be
Blood running down your cheeks
Begin
Inject
Remove
The point
The ocean spreads beneath the skin
Fluid fills blackened lungs
Tar seeps across the eyes
Away in the sea of red
Heat seeps in souls
Sweat soaked yellow shroud
Breathless protection
Daggers where the eyes should be
Blood running down your cheeks
Eyes in black suns direction
Feet burning insects stinging
Sweat soaked yellow shroud
Breathless protection
Daggers where the eyes should be
Blood running down your cheeks
Begin
Inject
Remove
The point
The ocean spreads beneath the skin
Fluid fills blackened lungs
Tar seeps across the eyes
Away in the sea of red

Blue

Ed Sheeran
“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.
Page

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
After you hear the dialogue in the beginning and then read the lyrics it somewhat makes sense. This song to me is from the female prospective and how much she missed her love one, and how she could not live without him. This is told in such lines daggers where your eyes should be, which is meaning how much it hurts her to know that he is gone.
