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"
This is important stuff
I mean, these kids are being screwed
There's a whole generation of them
They got constitutional rights that are being violated everyday by the police
They take the kids, they rough 'em up, they throw 'em in jail
The judges are cold
Then they throw the kids in jail, they give them a sentence
They don't give a shit, they just care about headlines
Fuck tha police comin' straight from the underground
A mother fucker got it bad 'cause I'm loud
I'm not a carbon copy so police think they have the authority
To kill a minority
Fuck that shit 'cause I ain't the one
For a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun
To be beatin' on and thrown in jail
We can go toe to toe in the middle of a cell
Fuckin' with me 'cause I'm a teenager
With a little bit of dough and a pager
Searchin' my car lookin' for the product
Yeah, motherfucker, I'm sellin' narcotics
You'd rather see me in the pen
Then me and my friends
All rollin' in a Benz-o
Beat a police out of shape
And when I'm finished, bring the yellow tape
To tape off the scene of a the slaughter
Still gettin' strong off bread and water
I don't know if they're fags or what
Searchin' me down and grabbin' my nuts
A motherfucker on the war path
And when I'm finished, it's gonna be a blood bath
Of cops dyin' on my way
Yeah, I got somethin' to say
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck the police
The jury's about to filled with, rednecks, white bread, chicken-shit, motherfuckers
Fuck the police and I said it with authority
'Cause my people on the streets are the majority
Lights are flashin' behind me
But you're scared little faggot so you mace me to blind me
But that shit don't work I just laugh
Because it gives 'em a hint not to step in my path
Police I'm sayin' fuck you punk
Read my rights and shit, it's all junk
Pullin' out a silly club so you stand
With a fake ass badge and a gun in your hand
But take off the gun so you can see what's up
And we'll go at it punk and I'ma fuck you up
Make you think I'm gonna kick your ass
But drop your gat and I'm gonna blast
Takin' out a police will make my day
A motherfucker like me don't give a fuck to say
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Fuck tha police
Yo man, what the fuck?
The name of the game is stay alive
I mean, these kids are being screwed
There's a whole generation of them
They got constitutional rights that are being violated everyday by the police
They take the kids, they rough 'em up, they throw 'em in jail
The judges are cold
Then they throw the kids in jail, they give them a sentence
They don't give a shit, they just care about headlines
Fuck tha police comin' straight from the underground
A mother fucker got it bad 'cause I'm loud
I'm not a carbon copy so police think they have the authority

@[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.
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."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
this song is stupid, not all cops are bad and not all of them want to get someone in trouble for no reason at all but i'm not gonna say that there are none in the world that do, i'm sure there are.
