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"
All the pieces of the puzzle seem to fall into place
But the only thought that I could think was pissin in that fuckin face
The taste that you left in my mouth was rotten
And you think that all the shit you did to me could be forgotten
Well fuck no
you both got me last time
next time I see your punk ass its mine
from behind dawg I'm gonna crack that skull
then I'm gonna laugh when you fall cause you fucked me raw
comin home late at night when your sneakin in the door
with a bottle half empty and your tank is on full
you Hurt me
and I will never forget
how you Hurt me
and all the pain you caused
left my mind blank and my soul was lost
and now the thoughts are in my head and drifting side to side
you know I'm gonna get cause there is nowhere to hide
headlines will read on the night she died
trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
I'm gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin Hurt me
Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me
My head was fucked up; hurt me
When I was locked up: Hurt me
Made a phone call; Hurt Me
Bitch put a block up; HURT ME
on the phone letters to your home
but you never wrote me back
what the fucks up with that
one of these days I'm gonna get you bitch
find your body
in an valley
in the alley
in a ditch
with a 45 chrome to the back of your dome
havin everybody wonderin what the fuck is goin on
where the fuck did you go
never be back again
but I still keep thinkin about you now and then
Trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin hurt me
I remember when I first said I love you
Got confused from the first time I fucked you
You got nervous when I opened up your legs Relax
cause I was raised on X-rated moves and porno mags
all day walk around with a full buzz
never fully understood what our love was
L-25 straight brought the light
same time had to dip outa town for a few nights
came back and my road dawgs waitin
tellin me some shit leavin me contemplaitin
murder
fuckin my best friend
unheard of
and I'm gonna get you in the end yeah
one of these days it'll be my time
and I'm gonna slit your throat make it look suicide
fuck you don't trust you
But the only thought that I could think was pissin in that fuckin face
The taste that you left in my mouth was rotten
And you think that all the shit you did to me could be forgotten
Well fuck no
you both got me last time
next time I see your punk ass its mine
from behind dawg I'm gonna crack that skull
then I'm gonna laugh when you fall cause you fucked me raw
comin home late at night when your sneakin in the door
with a bottle half empty and your tank is on full
you Hurt me
and I will never forget
how you Hurt me
and all the pain you caused
left my mind blank and my soul was lost
and now the thoughts are in my head and drifting side to side
you know I'm gonna get cause there is nowhere to hide
headlines will read on the night she died
trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
I'm gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin Hurt me
Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me
My head was fucked up; hurt me
When I was locked up: Hurt me
Made a phone call; Hurt Me

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
oh god i love this song......it makes me just wanna rip someones face off...argh
