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"
December, the angels cry in vain and suffered from the insanity
They were like a, a dreedful child, white cold and dark blue
There is no place to go nor place to be, except the pain we all have
While the angels waiting for the sign to end it once for all
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, you were not there
As a child molested and abused from the hands of his grip
She tried so many times no wonder she is afraid
I felt so afraid and tried to earse the pain when I saw her scars
She hated live and she cant stand the pain her after all she had try
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, you were not there
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, but you were not there
They were like a, a dreedful child, white cold and dark blue
There is no place to go nor place to be, except the pain we all have
While the angels waiting for the sign to end it once for all
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, you were not there
As a child molested and abused from the hands of his grip
She tried so many times no wonder she is afraid
I felt so afraid and tried to earse the pain when I saw her scars
She hated live and she cant stand the pain her after all she had try
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, you were not there
You are my skin, which makes my wounds unheal
Sweetness of blood spills
Why are the children dying from our own misery
When I needed caring, but you were not there

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
