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"
[Verse 1]
Please, let me introduce myself
I'm gonna get you off like there's no one else
Hey, won't you step inside my brain
I'm your freak show baby
I'm your crazy train.
Sunset boulevard, Hollywood Hills
Pretty kitties
Back in black
And I'm Dressed to kill
[Chorus]
I'll be your sugar daddy
I'll be your diamond rings
You'll be my dirty secret
You'll be my sexy thing
I'll take you platinum baby
I'll be your Rock star
I'll get you higher baby
If you wanna go that far
[Verse 2]
Hey, show you things you've never seen
Touch my backstage-pass
Ride my limousine
Please, let me be your flesh and blood
Your dirty secret
Your Rock Of Love
Sunset boulevard, Hollywood Hills
Pretty kitties
Back in black
And I'm Dressed to kill
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Now you're filled with rope
You're goin' V.I.P.
You're flyin' private baby
LA. to NYC
You like my fancy crib
You dig that big black car
Wearin' that designer clothes
Hangin' with movie stars
[Chorus]
Please, let me introduce myself
I'm gonna get you off like there's no one else
Hey, won't you step inside my brain
I'm your freak show baby
I'm your crazy train.
Sunset boulevard, Hollywood Hills
Pretty kitties
Back in black
And I'm Dressed to kill
[Chorus]
I'll be your sugar daddy

You'll be my sexy thing
I'll take you platinum baby
I'll be your Rock star
I'll get you higher baby
If you wanna go that far
[Verse 2]
Hey, show you things you've never seen
Touch my backstage-pass
Ride my limousine
Please, let me be your flesh and blood
Your dirty secret

hes saying i'll, and you'll ;; not i'd and you'd just saying.
oh and its and I'm dressed to kill, and after your dirty secret its your rock of love. then its now your filled with rope, and its wearin that designer clothes.
Filled with rope makes no sense in virtually any context, especially not THIS. "Now you're velvet rope" is a fancy way of saying that they're velvet rope material, velvet ropes being the red carpet's big brother and sister (twins no less...how poetic). They're the kind of crowd-guide/block used for celebrity appearances.<br /> <br /> As for "take you flying", I'm not sure if it's that, "your platinum," or something different entirely.<br /> <br /> Basically, the song is overall the guy hitting on someone, trying to entice her with fame and fortune, saying that he could take her to the top and make her a celebrity. ...I wonder what her reaction might be.
