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"

@[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.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
"that's ridiculous and insulting! Tell me how you know for sure, if we were sure god exists then if, its as certain as the sun's existence for example, then you have no freedom of choice YOU KNOW THAT GOD EXISTS and have no course of action but to obey him at all times for fear of hell. This means you have no free will"
i have free will. u can have faith and still have free will. i am sure god exhists if your a christian and dont believe that then you are in danger of going to hell. are u sure the sun exhists have u ever been there no u havnt but yet u insist it exhists because you can see it. i can see god and everything hes done so im sure he exhists its called faith.
"You're arguing that faith is greater than love which the bible explicitly says isn't true"
no where did i argue that faith was greater. i merely said i beleived 100% god exhists. love without faith is hopeless.
"what the fuck, how can i argue with you if you refuse to hear any facts, read any papers, watch any documentaries or watch the news because it is presented in a liberal way. you're also staggeringly ignorant of christian theology. you admit to knowing nothing. how can you be so narrow minded."
how can u not accept the fact that most conservative people do not like liberal news. i get my information from plenty of sources. FOX UPN. i watched farenhype 911 thats a documentary. exactly what part of the christian theology am i ignorant of
saying abortion is murder is not narrowminded but merely stating a fact. u asked i gave. its that simple you dont listin to that fact because you do not want to realise it is the truth how can you be so narrowminded.
"the bible also says that god assigns people tasks according to the measure of faith they've been given. only the very greatest biblical heros are shown amazing miracles or given one to one audiences with god, you obviously think a lot of yourself"
which bible are you reading ive searched the entire bible and found nothing along those lines any where book chapter and verse please.
"see hedgemon, this is how the wider world sees you, i mean what's the point"
i really do not care how the world sees me im not facist i merely am conservative. and when i asked i was not told which part of christian logic i was oppressing.
