I never thought that you and I would ever meet again,
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within,
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been,
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?

I held the funeral the day you left,
A black umbrella and a sad song in my head,
Buried your pictures that I loved the most,
'Cause if you survived me I just didn't wanna know,
So you can't just come back now like a demon uninvited,
No you can't just expect me to open my door to you because,

I never thought that you and I would ever meet again,
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within,
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been,
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?

I'm so confused I don't know what to feel,
Should I throw my arms around you or kill you for real?
'Cause I worked so hard to put the past to rest,
Now it's tumbling down on me just like an avalanche,
So you can't just come back now like a demon uninvited,
No you can't just expect me to open my door to you because,

I know I know I can sit and talk but I can't make you listen,
You wish that I paid attention, I thought if I paid admissions,
To wherever, go however, it would paint the perfect picture,
You said "no matter how much you f*cking make it doesn't make a difference",
And I'm so so so sorry that we fell in love, Geronimo, it's Like One thing leads to another,

Swear we're fucking we're dominos but, here we are,
Now I'm trying to find an answer in this Bottle girl,
And I'm im driving slow, driving slow, don't let the piranha's know

But you gon' miss me when I'm gone,
Why we gotta wait that long?
Baby do-do-do-do-don't,
Or should I walk out instead,
Is this live and let die or night of the living dead?

I never thought that you and I would ever meet again,
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within,
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been,
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

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"
