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"
Hey, hey, hey
La, la, la, la, la
Hey, hey, hey
La, la, la, la, la
You come from here
I come from there
You rock out in your room
I rock a world premiere
We're more alike than
Anybody could ever tell
(Ever tell)
Friday, we're cool
Monday, we're freaks
Sometimes we rule
Sometimes we can't even speak
But we can kick it up and
Let loose and l-o-l (l-o-l)
It may seem cliche
For me to wanna say
That you're not alone
And you can call me uncool
But it's a simple fact
I got your back
Yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause we're one and the same
We're something more than ordinary
One and the same
I think we're almost legendary
You and me the perfect team
Chasing down the dream
We're one and the same
Hey, hey, hey
La,la,la,la,la
I'm kind of like you
You're kind of like me
We write the same song
In a different key
It's got a rhythm
You and me
Can get along
(Get along)
And it may seem cliche
For me to wanna say
That you're not alone
And you can call me uncool
But it's a simple fact
I still got your back
'Cause we're one and the same
We're anything but ordinary
One and the same
I think we're almost legendary
You and me the perfect team
Shaking up the scene
We're one and the same
'Cause we're one and the same
We're anything but ordinary
One and the same
We're something more than momentary
'Cause we're one
Yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause we're one
I think we're almost legendary
We're anything but ordinary
You and me the perfect team
Chasing down the dream
Oh, you and me the perfect team
Shaking up the scene
We're one and the same
Hey, hey, hey
La, la, la, la, la
Hey, hey, hey
La, la, la, la, la
Hey, hey, hey
La, la, la, la, la
You come from here
I come from there
You rock out in your room
I rock a world premiere
We're more alike than
Anybody could ever tell
(Ever tell)
Friday, we're cool
Monday, we're freaks
Sometimes we rule
Sometimes we can't even speak
But we can kick it up and
Let loose and l-o-l (l-o-l)
It may seem cliche
For me to wanna say
That you're not alone
And you can call me uncool
But it's a simple fact
I got your back
Yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause we're one and the same
We're something more than ordinary
One and the same
I think we're almost legendary
You and me the perfect team
Chasing down the dream
We're one and the same
Hey, hey, hey
La,la,la,la,la
I'm kind of like you
You're kind of like me
We write the same song
In a different key
It's got a rhythm

You and me the perfect team
Chasing down the dream
Oh, you and me the perfect team
Shaking up the scene

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."
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Cute song! Love Selena and Demi!♥
