Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything inside of my head
It all just goes to show how
Nothing I know changes me at all
Again I waited for this to change instead
To tear the world in two
Another night with her
But I'm always wanting you
Use me Holly come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me Holly come on and use me
We go where we know
With all of this I feel now
Everything inside of my heart
It all just seems to be how
Nothing I feel pulls at me at all
Again I waited for this to pull apart
To break my time in two
Another night with her
But I'm always wanting you
Use me Holly come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me Holly come on and use me
We go where we know
She's all I need
She's all I dream
She's all I'm always wanting
She's all I need
She's all I dream
She's all I'm always wanting you
I'm always wanting you
I'm always wanting you
Use me Holly come on and use me
We know where we go
Use me Holly come on and use me
We go where we know
She's all I need
She's all I dream
She's all I'm always wanting
She's all I need
She's all I dream
She's all I'm always wanting you
And all again I wait for this
To fill a whole, to shake the sky in two
Another night with her
I'm always wanting you
Another night with her
But I'm always wanting you
The song "All of This" by Blink182 featuring Robert Smith of The Cure is a complicated love song that speaks to the difficulties of relationships and the struggles of trying to move on from someone. The song has a fast-paced, pop-punk sound, but the lyrics hold a deep, melancholic bitterness. The song starts with Mark Hoppus reflecting on his own knowledge of love and relationships. He realizes that despite all the insights he has gained over time, nothing he knows has changed him at all. The next verse has Tom DeLonge singing about his feelings and how they don't seem to affect him at all. He talks about waiting for things to change but they never do, and he's always left wanting for something else - someone else.
The chorus of the song is a conversation between Holly and the singer. He's asking her to use him, to take advantage of him in some way. They both know where they're going; they're both struggling to move on from something that is holding them back. But despite this, they continue to go back to each other again and again, trapped in a cycle of desire and disappointment. The bridge of the song then switches back to Mark, who declares that she (the person he's singing to) is all he needs, all he dreams, and all he's always wanting. The song ends with a final cry of "I'm always wanting you", emphasizing the cyclical nature of their relationship and the repeated failures that they experience.
