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"
Mentira mi vida
Lo que se da y no se mira
Mentira fundida
Con miel que evaporó mi piel
Mentira prohibida
Debilidad que me domina
Mentira mi vida
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverme
Mentira vendida
Polaridad que me intoxica
Mentiras escondida
Flagelo que mi corazón no olvida
Mentira las tentaciones destructivas
Mentira medida
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente me perdí
Regreso para devolverte
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Mi corazón
Nunca dejó
Tu corazón
Mentira servida
En vino y pan de cada día
Mentira atrevida
Bolero de mi corazón
Amarga saliva
Sabor a culpa y agonía
Mentira divina
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverme a ver
Amor solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverte
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Y siempre busco la verdad
Mi corazón
Nunca dejó
Tu corazón
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Y busco siempre la verdad
Mi corazón nunca se fue
Lo que se da y no se mira
Mentira fundida
Con miel que evaporó mi piel
Mentira prohibida
Debilidad que me domina
Mentira mi vida
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverme
Mentira vendida
Polaridad que me intoxica
Mentiras escondida
Flagelo que mi corazón no olvida
Mentira las tentaciones destructivas
Mentira medida
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente me perdí
Regreso para devolverte
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Mi corazón
Nunca dejó
Tu corazón
Mentira servida
En vino y pan de cada día
Mentira atrevida
Bolero de mi corazón
Amarga saliva
Sabor a culpa y agonía
Mentira divina
No quiero mas mentirte amor
Solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverme a ver
Amor solamente encontré
El necio precio de volverte
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Y siempre busco la verdad
Mi corazón
Nunca dejó
Tu corazón
Mi corazón
Late por ti
Dentro de mi
Y busco siempre la verdad
Mi corazón nunca se fue

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."

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.
lies my sweetheart what's given and overlooked burnout lies with honey seeping into skin prohibited lies desability that dominates lies my sweetheart don't want to lie anymore my love alone finding the stubborn price of stepping back soldout lies intoxicating morality lies driven under fragile heart does not forget lies with destructive tensions lies that measure don't want to lie my love alone I lost you came back to give you back
my heart it beats for you inside of me my heart it never left your truly
lies served with the wine and bread of each day mischevious lies shiner in my heart with bitter saliva taste with guilt and pain divine lies don't want to lie my love alone I will find the stubborn price of looking back at me
my love alone I will find the stubborn price of looking back at you
my heart beats for you inside of me and it's searchin gor the truth my heart never left your heart my heart beats for you inside of me and it always searches truth my heart never left.
i like this song
he lied to her but feels like shit now cause he really loves her
my heart never left yours...i love that part
