You, you, you think about me all the time
But you, you, you only tell my friends
That you, you, you know, you are my kind
But you, you, you turn away my smile

Oh, I know I should be so strong
But I, I don't wanna waste no time
And I, I don't wanna fight no more
But I, I've got to hear this thing from you

Screaming, shouting anyway, anyway
Anyway you wanna go
Screaming, shouting anyway, anyway
Anyway you wanna go about it

So tell me I need your loving
I think I love it
Tell me I want you by my side
You know, I know that you want my loving
Now tell me

And you, you, you know away forever
But you, you, you take me to the end
And you, you know I'll be gone
But you, you know my time is precious

Oh, I know I should be so strong
But I, I don't wanna waste no time
And I, I don't wanna fight no more
But I, I've got to hear this thing from you

Screaming, shouting and away, and away
And away you wanna go
Screaming, shouting and away, and away
And away you wanna go about it

So tell me I need your loving
I think I love it
Tell me I want you by my side
You know, I know that you want my loving
Now tell me

Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me

Tell me now
Won't you tell me now?
Won't you tell me now?
Won't you tell me now?

Tell me, now tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell, tell me now

Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now

Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me

Oh, won't you tell me now?
Oh, won't you tell me now?
Oh, won't you tell me now?

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"
