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"
Never said any of this was gonna be simple
Sometimes all it takes is just a symbol oh-oh-oh
Because the place
You want to reach is right in front of you
You're getting stronger
So just keep on that bit longer
Rap-pa-pum
Girl come over
Me want you closer
I'm tired of the rainy days
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
So before the nights over
I want you to know that
I'm willing to change my ways
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
Come over, Come over
Come over, come Come over
Come over, Come over
Come over, come come over
I guess you're gonna run out luck love,
Sooner or later
You better make time to sit down
And put pen to paper oh-oh-oh
Because the things you want to do will slip away from you
It won't be long now
So just keep on being strong now
Rap pa pum
Girl come over
Me want you closer
I'm tired of the rainy days
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
So before the nights over
I want you to know that
I'm willing to change my ways
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
You bring me Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
On regular she blow my mind
Your turn, my darling
I can't live without you
Without you (No, no, no)
Girl you got me weak at my knees
7 days of the week
I can't stop think about you
About you
Come over, Come over
Come over, come Come over
Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
Come over, Come over
Come over, come Come over
Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
Sun, sun, sun Sun-shine
Look at my style
Me hear them saying 'l'm sorry girl'
And both times no one feels to stay the night over
Nineteen days pass since I last see the girl
Be at the bedroom over
Got no fight over
Regular she cuss me
Tell her friends, then mos, how she no trusts me
Well if I saw you down from here, let me pay
Since the last three months
You know you want me
Me won't pick up me phone
No dial-dial-oo
Don't put pressure on me, I'll ask you
Here baby let me love you
You know I wan't some
No me wish you know
About my, my manual
Won't pick up the phone
No dial-dial-oo
Don't put pressure on me, I'll ask you
Here baby let me love you
You know I wan't some
No me wish you know
About my, my manual
Ra-pa-pum
Girl come over
Me want you closer
I'm tired of the rainy days

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."
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
