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"
Love you lately
Though you drive me crazy
But I'll bet it's alright
But I'll bet it's alright
Well we entertain it
Well I'm …
And the planets align
Girl, I'll make up my mind
No, no, not I
I don't have that sense
I don't see at all
I will write it down
And fight it out
We'll be fine
Beautifully
Put it beautifully
Girl, you'd say we've arrived
And you're coming alive
But it ended into this
We've been facing your fears
Now I'm neck-deep in mine
Thought I'd take back my time now
Only when I'm shaking
Then my time is taken
I will write it out
And find it out
All the way we'll make it
Always stop to hate it
I won't mind that I
Don't time it
We'll be fine
Though you drive me crazy
But I'll bet it's alright
But I'll bet it's alright
Well we entertain it
Well I'm …
And the planets align
Girl, I'll make up my mind
No, no, not I
I don't have that sense
I don't see at all
I will write it down
And fight it out
We'll be fine
Beautifully
Put it beautifully
Girl, you'd say we've arrived
And you're coming alive
But it ended into this
We've been facing your fears
Now I'm neck-deep in mine
Thought I'd take back my time now
Only when I'm shaking
Then my time is taken
I will write it out
And find it out
All the way we'll make it
Always stop to hate it
I won't mind that I
Don't time it
We'll be fine

Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
I think this song has something to do with the couples' insecurities or fears. They were ok at first, then some problems went on. But they came out of it knowing they'd "be fine". Im probably way off.
Does anyone know what he sings after 'We'll, we make up our mind'? Every lyric site i've been to has the elipses.
i meant 'well we entertain it' hmm-wow, stupid moment.
sounds like wellevated, so maybe elevated?
