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"
[MC Confusing]
Other rappers are comprehensible, not me
First on the mic, MC Confusing!
I took a piss on my nutsack and called it Jack Black
It's a fact, I got more rhymes than Zach Braff takin' a nap
I attack mothafuckas wearin' purple backpacks
And I snack on towel racks then take a sh!t on your track
Yeah you're whack, 'cause everybody understands what you say
But when I get on the mic I make milk out of clay
And I play air guitar with a tube of toothpaste
And I say karate pencil case then put it on tape
[MC Insecure]
Yo I'm MC Insecure, what's up?
I really don't think that I'm good enough
To be rhymin' on this track 'cause my lyrics suck
All my verses fall flat like a hockey puck
It took me 7 months to write the first part of my verse
And now I got nothin' left so I'll pretend that I got hurt
(Ow! Ahh, I think I sprained my ankle.
You guys go ahead and finish the song without me.)
[MC Amnesia]
Yo MC Amnesia up in this bitch
Woke up 5 days ago lyin' in a ditch
Didn't know who I was, I couldn't remember sh!t
Apparently something happened that was tra-ma-tic
I used to have more rhymes but I can't remember them
Seriously, I'm freakin' out, I can't remember anything
What's my mothafuckin' name?
(Seriously, does anyone know what my name is?)
[MC Public Urination]
Yo I'm MC Public Urination, what what
I take a fckin' piss on the fckin' sidewalk
Anytime, anyplace, I just whip out my c0ck
And empty my bladder while you mothafuckas watch
You other MCs can't handle this sh!t
You're just a little bitch, 'fraid to pee in public
You run into a toilet every time you have to piss
Yo, fck that sh!t, I just whip out my dick
[MC Fatigue]
Yo MC Fatigue, yeah that's me
Everytime I grab the mic I fckin' fall asleep
[Chorus Guy]
I'm the guy who sings the chorus
(It breaks up the song)
My part is kinda boring
(I wish that I could go home)
But they're payin' me to sing the chorus
(And I really need the cash)
'Cause I'm unemployed at the moment
(Just moved back in with my dad)
[MC Doesn't Know What Irony Is]
Yo I'm MC Doesn't Know What Irony Is
Walked up to a girl and I gave her a kiss
She said "Let's go to your place, I'll suck your dick."
I said, "Hell yeah bitch, that's so ironic."
[MC Gets Side-Tracked Easily]
Yo I'm MC Gets Side-Tracked Easily
My rhymes are badass like Gandolfini
You know he's known for the Sopranos but he's also in movies
Like Get Shorty and Terminal Velocity
Which I didn't really like 'cause I don't like Charlie Sheen
Well I guess in Hot Shots he was kinda funny
But I prefer Leslie Nielsen in the Naked Gun
You know who else was in that movie? O.J. Simpson
Which is kinda weird knowin' what he did after that
Wait, what was I sayin'? I think I got side-tracked
[MC Lethal Weapon 1, 2, & 3]
Yo I'm MC Lethal Weapon 1, 2, & 3
I really liked those movies but the 4th disappointed me
Danny Glover, Mel Gibson, and Joe Pesci
Why did they have to make a 4th? They had a perfect trilogy
[MC Lethal Weapon 4]
MC Lethal Weapon 4, that's me
I disagree with MC Lethal Weapon 1, 2, & 3
Although I agree that it is a ground-breakin' trilogy
The 4th was also good, they added Chris Rock and Jet Li
[MC Sh!t My Pants Frequently]
Yo I'm MC Sh!t My Pants Frequently
It usually happens when I'm walkin' down the street
Or when I'm hangin' out with some fly ass hoes
There we go, thank god I brought a change of clothes
[MC Final Verse]
Yo I'm the MC with the final verse
I'm supposed to sum up everything you heard
But mothafuckas, I don't really have the time
So fuck that and go back to the chorus guy
[Chorus Guy]
I'm still singin' the chorus
(Thank god wer're almost done)
I hate singin' the chorus
(It's such a boring fuckin' job)
I'm gonna take my 40 bucks
(That's what they're payin' me)
And I'm gonna go get really drunk
(Masterbate then go to sleep)

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

These lyrics are full of errors and is even missing a line in MC Confusing's verse. Here's the corrected version:
