All for Nothing
Face All Fears Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have to tell myself I don't need you
I have to tell myself I don't need you

When did this ever become so set in stone?
I look back on it and I'm glad those days are gone
Forever alone
but this isn't the first time it never fucking stops
Set in stone

Will we forever have to go through this?
Will I continue to complain about the rain?
Even when skies are clear I'm losing years and faking everyday

GO

I've lost hope in everything you've told me
Silence was your loudest scream
There's no trust issue when I know the fucking truth
I'm letting go

I have to tell myself I don't need you
I have to tell myself I don't need you

and this will be the last time that you see me
This is not a negotiation I want to fucking call it off
and you will never see my face again
you will never see my face

When did this ever become so set in stone?
I look back on it and I'm glad those days are gone
Forever alone

but this isn't the first time it never fucking stops
Set in stone

Overall Meaning

In Face All Fears' song All for Nothing, the lyrical content delves into themes of relationship breakdown, heartache, and moving on. The singer expresses their frustration and realization that they have lost hope in their partner and need to let go, even if it means being forever alone. The opening lines, "I have to tell myself I don't need you," show the internal struggle of trying to distance oneself from a toxic relationship, while the repetition of the same line emphasizes the difficulty of letting go.

The second verse begins with a questioning tone, wondering whether the cycle of pain and complaining about the rain will ever end. The singer acknowledges that they have lost hope in everything their partner has told them, and the silence was the loudest scream. This could imply that the singer had been trying to communicate their feelings, but their partner was not listening or understanding them. Despite this, the singer knows the truth and can let go without a trust issue, which further emphasizes the strength needed to move on.

The chorus repeats the need to tell oneself that they don't need their partner, and the final stanza reinforces the idea that this decision has been set in stone. The singer is confident in their choice, and this will be the last time their partner sees them. The overall tone of the song is reflective, and the lyrics outline the challenges and courage needed to let go of a toxic relationship.
