All My Days
Alexi Murdoch/Alexi Murdoch Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I have been searching
All of my days
Many a road, you know
I've been walking on
All of my days
And I've been trying to find
What's been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
All of my days
Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
All of this rain
And I've been trying to find
What's been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
All of my days
I cried aloud
I shook my hands
What am I doing here
All of these days
For I look around me
And my eyes confound me
And it's just too bright
As the days keep turning into night

Now I see clearly
It's you I'm looking for
All of my days
So I'll smile
I know I'll feel this loneliness no more
All of my days
For I look around me
And it seems you found me
And it's coming into sight
As the days keep turning into night
As the days keep turning into night
And even breathing feels all right
Yes, even breathing feels all right
Now even breathing feels all right




Yes even breathing
Feels all right

Overall Meaning

In the song "All My Days," Alexi Murdoch explores the concept of searching for and finding true love. Throughout the lyrics, the singer reflects on the journey he has taken in life, looking for something that had been in his mind for a long time, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He talks about the long and winding road he has taken and how he has been walking on it for many days. He also talks about standing alone in the shade, watching the sky breaking, and reflecting on all the promises that he has made.


The singer seems to be on a quest for love, and he describes how he's cried aloud and shook his hands. He often found himself with no friends standing near, and he confounds himself when he looks around. The nights can be long and lonely, and he is confused about his existence, questioning what he is doing there. But then, when he sees the subject of his affection, he understands that he has been looking for her all along. He knows that even breathing feels all right now that he has finally found her.


"All My Days" is a poignant reflection on life's journey, the search for meaning, and the love that makes everything worth it in the end. It is a soul-searching song that speaks to the longing we all feel to find our true love.


Line by Line Meaning

Well I have been searching
I have been on a quest


All of my days
For a long time


Many a road, you know
I have traveled many paths


I've been walking on
I have been journeying


And I've been trying to find
I have been attempting to discover


What's been in my mind
What my thoughts have been


As the days keep turning into night
As time goes on


Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
I have been observing in the background


Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
I witness the failure of a commitment I made


All of this rain
A metaphor for difficulties


For I look around me
As I scan my surroundings


And my eyes confound me
My vision perplexes me


And it's just too bright
Things are too optimistic


Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
I often felt friendless during dark times


I cried aloud
I wailed uncontrollably


I shook my hands
I was overcome with frustration


What am I doing here
I pondered the why of my presence


Now I see clearly
I have gained understanding


It's you I'm looking for
You are who I seek


So I'll smile
I will be happy


I know I'll feel this loneliness no more
I won't feel alone anymore


And it seems you found me
It appears you have located me


And it's coming into sight
It's becoming visible


As the days keep turning into night
As time marches on


And even breathing feels all right
Even the most basic thing feels good


Yes, even breathing feels all right
Yes, even just breathing is fine


Now even breathing feels all right
Now even the most basic thing feels good


Yes even breathing
Even the simple act of breathing


Feels all right
Feels good

Well I have been searching all of my days
All of my days
Many a road, you know
I've been walking on
All of my days
And I've been trying to find
What's been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
All of my days
Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
All of this rain
And I've been trying to find
What's been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
All of my days
I cried aloud
I shook my hands
What am I doing here
All of these days
For I look around me
And my eyes confound me
And it's just too bright
As the days keep turning into night

Now I see clearly
It's you I'm looking for 
All of my days
Soon I'll smile
I know I'll feel this loneliness no more
All of my days
For I look around me
And it seems you've found me
And it's coming into sight
As the days keep turning into night
As the days keep turning into night
And even breathing feels all right
Yes, even breathing feels all right
Now even breathing feels all right
It's even breathing
Feels all right
