All The Time
Gabi Gamberg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm just kidding that's only how I wished it
I'm thinking all the time
Thinking all the time
I'm scared of taking antihistamines
Because they make you tired I mean
I'm tired all the time
Tired all the time
I don't want to be in your way
I'm always running into you
I'm running all the time
Running all the time
I'm tired all the time
Of running all the time
And thinking all the time
You don't want me in your way
I don't want to be in your way
I'm always running into you
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Power lines
Fell away
And trees were left
For the whole day
All my hair
Stuck to my face
You cut the lawn
Cut me a break
I'm running all the time
Running all the time
I'm tired all the time
Of running all the time
And thinking all the time
I'm running all the time
Running all the time
I'm tired all the time
Of running all the time
And thinking all the time
You don't want me in your way
I don't want to be in your way
I'm always running into you
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
The lyrics of "All the Time" by Gabi Gamberg refer to the anxiety of constantly thinking and running into someone who you may have a complicated relationship with. The opening line of "I blew my nose and all my thoughts went with it" is a whimsical way of expressing the desire to let go of one's racing thoughts. However, the next line reveals that this is only a wishful thinking, and the singer is still caught up in their head. The repetition of "thinking all the time" and "running all the time" emphasizes their state of constant worry and movement.
The singer also mentions being afraid of taking antihistamines because of the side-effect of exhaustion, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for avoiding things that may temporarily relieve anxiety but can ultimately make you feel worse. The lines "You don't want me in your way, I don't want to be in your way, I'm always running into you" suggest that there is someone in their life whom they are constantly bumping into, perhaps a former lover or a friend they have fallen out with. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the difficulty of letting go of someone one has a complicated relationship with.
The last verse of the song describes a moment of reprieve from the anxiety, where the power lines fall away and the trees are left alone. However, the singer's hair is still stuck to their face, indicating that they are still struggling. The line "you cut the lawn, cut me a break" could be interpreted as a plea to the person they keep running into to give them a break and allow them to move on. Overall, the song is a poignant reflection on the difficulty of letting go of painful relationships and the struggle to find peace within oneself.

Power lines
Electrical lines for transmitting energy
Fell away
They collapsed or were knocked down
And trees were left
The trees remained standing even though the power lines fell
For the whole day
It took a long time for the downed power lines to be cleared
All my hair
My hair was affected by the weather or situation
Stuck to my face
My hair was wet or sweaty and clung to my skin
You cut the lawn
You did some hard work or did something to help me out
Cut me a break
Give me some rest or some time off
Oooooooh
An expression of feeling or emotion without specific meaning
