You're my angel
You are my shelter
You're my heart

Don't let me go now
Without a chance
That you know if you could look through my eyes
And see what I'd see
You'll find there's only you

I need your strength through it all
Your touch to sooth my soul
And if you let me go
Here's what I am
I am a broken man

You're my reason
You are my courage
You're my heart
You are the daybreak that holds me sweetly through the dark

Please let me look through your eyes
To cry these tears
You'll find they're only for you

I need your strength through it all
Your touch to sooth my soul
And if you let me go
Here's what I am
I am a broken man

I know I should have told you
All that you mean to me
If you leave me
I won't survive
You're my life

Don't say goodbye
Forgive me please
Down on my knees
This time I'd let it show
Cause this broken man
Healing is so, waiting to long
So that you know
I need your strength to hold
You touch to sooth my soul
And if you let me go
Please understand
All that I am
Is just a broken
I'm a broken man

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
