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"
So come on (come on) turn me loose
And keep it tight, tight like that noose
What's wrong with this picture
Shit flies when I pull the trigger
Too bad repercussion
Shit stomp to a face that I'm crushin'
Back off and let it be
Or I'll take you below 40 degrees
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you feel this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
Stuff this (stuff this) down your throat
Tight rope, let's see if this shit floats
I rip you up, like a chainsaw
Rearrange, to forget what you came for
Don't talk, just listen
Don't change, your position
Fuck you, if you don't like this
If you don't like this, bitch, you can bite this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you feel this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
(Die)
(Die)
I can not contain this
I can not explain this
I am so deranged, it's on
But do you really want to die
Do you want to
Do you want to (do you really want to) (die)
Do you want to (die)
Do you want to (do you really want to)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away
Fuck 'er
And keep it tight, tight like that noose
What's wrong with this picture
Shit flies when I pull the trigger
Too bad repercussion
Shit stomp to a face that I'm crushin'
Back off and let it be
Or I'll take you below 40 degrees
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you feel this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
Stuff this (stuff this) down your throat
Tight rope, let's see if this shit floats
I rip you up, like a chainsaw
Rearrange, to forget what you came for
Don't talk, just listen
Don't change, your position
Fuck you, if you don't like this
If you don't like this, bitch, you can bite this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)
'Cause I'll make you hear this
(Die) yes, you're gonna
(Die) yes, you're gonna (die)

Do you want to (do you really want to)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away just as I'm about to (die)
Don't walk away
Fuck 'er

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."
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
