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 princess, lay back in your chair
Show us your geometry, see if I stare
Pink cigarette, white see-through dress
And a black and gold veil
Ornate headdress, my temptress
Wield your stuff and your veil
Vows, secrets, wake me when
It's my turn to walk through
Caught deep in your every curve
Primed and ready for battle
Lift your veil now formulate
With the sound by yourself
As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects
And our hearts, they collapse
At the words
Now come to me in your glitz and your glam
Place your heart, down step back
And watch this
Blank featured, vile creatures
Collapse at your ankles
Fire breather, snake eater
Relax as we hail her
Vows, secrets, wake me when
It's my turn to walk through
Don't turn around, look back to see it
Just hang on and formulate
And believe it by yourself
As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects
And our hearts, they collapse
From the words we intake
And now relate like I relate
'Til your faith reconnects
Now relate like I relate
To the words
We are enlightened
We stare and behold
We commit to your being
We belong, we belong
Deep in your circle
Trapped in your grace
Wrapped in your prism walls
We will stay
Show us your geometry, see if I stare
Pink cigarette, white see-through dress
And a black and gold veil
Ornate headdress, my temptress
Wield your stuff and your veil
Vows, secrets, wake me when
It's my turn to walk through
Caught deep in your every curve
Primed and ready for battle
Lift your veil now formulate
With the sound by yourself
As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects
And our hearts, they collapse
At the words
Now come to me in your glitz and your glam
Place your heart, down step back
And watch this
Blank featured, vile creatures
Collapse at your ankles
Fire breather, snake eater
Relax as we hail her
Vows, secrets, wake me when
It's my turn to walk through
Don't turn around, look back to see it
Just hang on and formulate
And believe it by yourself
As her words draw you in
Our faith reconnects
And our hearts, they collapse
From the words we intake
And now relate like I relate
'Til your faith reconnects
Now relate like I relate
To the words
We are enlightened
We stare and behold
We commit to your being
We belong, we belong
Deep in your circle
Trapped in your grace
Wrapped in your prism walls
We will stay
