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"

Let's talk about you on top, or me goin' down
Let's have a lil' phone sex baby, on the hotline
On the hotline, the sun ain't up but I had to call you
'Cause I'm home alone lustin' for ya
I'm in my room, nothin' but a towel on
Take them granny panties off put a thong on
I love it when I hear you moan
You got a sexy tone that makes the dick long
You're in a complete 'nother city
On the fan line with nothin' but a baby tee on
You're the kind of girl that's sexy in some boxer shorts
I'm the kind of nigga that make you ride it like a Porsche
Yeah I met you on myspace
Now I'm 'bout to fly you out to my place, in the morning
Its five in the morning

Call me, call me, you're comin', you're comin'
Called you seven times baby girl don't stall me
I wanna kiss you from yo temple to yo feet
To the dimples in your cheek, to the middle of your g-string
Conversation underneath the sheets
You know me red bull like a energy, I'm a freak
Baby girl said she loves phone sex
Say the sound of my deep voice make her wet
You call me 5 A.M. on the dot
Now I'm thinkin' 'bout you with no panties, no top
Picture this, you say you're comin' over
30 minutes later you was parkin' the Rover
Jumped out the car and I met you at the door
3 seconds in the house and your panties on the floor
Kiss you in you mouth and your hips on my cheeks
Straight action on the carpet, rug burns on my knees
Now you're on the phone like damn I made a mess
Got my hands in my pants, man, I love phone sex
Its five in the morning
And I'm up havin' phone sex wit you you (so horny)
And now I'm on the hotline over here lustin' for you you (so horny)
Let's talk about sex baby
Let's talk about you and me
Let's talk about bubbles in the tub

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
Meaning? Do I even NEED to explain? Lol, this song says it all. Two words: Phone sex. Or Booty call. I don't know who the hell even has phone sex at 5 am. People take showers for work at that time. So yeah, I'd say Booty Call.
"Yeah, I met you on myspace Now I'm 'bout to fly you out to my place, in the mornin'" Lmfao. That line is so ridiculous. Horrible song.
