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"
So you're the girl, I heard the rumor
You got the boys
Wrapped around your finger
Such a sweet heart breaker
You're the game
I want to be the player
Oh you can do whatever you want
It's alright with me
Why don't you break my heart
Make it hurt so bad
Come on give it you best
Nothing less
I insist I want it just like that
Why don't you break my heat
Sounds good to me
Do it over again again again
You're just what I need
Why don't you break my heart
Stare me down, intimidate me
Baby please you'll never break me
Bring it on cause I can take
You're so cool the way you play it
You can do whatever you like
It's alright with me
Why don't you break my heart
Make it hurt so bad
Come on give it you best
Nothing less
I insist I want it just like that
Why don't you break my heart
Sounds good to me
Do it over again again again
Your just what I need
Why don't you break my
Why don't you break my
Why don't you break my

Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
I think this song is about putting yourself in a potentially hurtful situation, and knowing that it's not the best for you, but doing it anyway because you can't resist.
