All the Days
Haerts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time has come
A summer gone
A memory faded

Lines are lost
In neon frost
On the sunset
Golden flames
We drew our names
In the water

Now you're gone
A love gone wrong
But I'll make it

All the days we had together

You can't teach
A heart to reach
Out to another

Leaving me
Will leave me free
To reach above now

All the days we had together

Oh and when the light is lost the night will follow
Our memory falls into the sun
And when the night is lost the light will follow
Our memory cannot take us back





All the days we had together

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of HAERTS's song "All the Days" are highly evocative and emotive, reflecting upon memories of love and loss. The song speaks about a past relationship and the singer's feelings of sorrow and heartache after it has ended. The chorus, "All the days we had together," is a poignant reminder of what once was and what can never be again. Through introspection and self-reflection, the singer comes to terms with their situation, recognizing that they must learn to move on and find happiness elsewhere.


The opening lines of the song set a melancholic tone, as the singer reminisces about a past summer that has faded into memory. The neon frost, a metaphorical representation of the memories that are now muddled and blurred, adds to the wistful atmosphere. The reference to "golden flames" in a later verse is a reminder of happier times, when the couple drew their names in the water. However, these flames have since been extinguished, and the singer is left to deal with the aftermath of a love gone wrong.


Despite the pain that comes with a broken heart, the singer acknowledges that it is impossible to teach oneself how to love again. The line "You can't teach a heart to reach out to another" suggests that this is something that must happen naturally, in its own time. However, the singer finds hope in the idea that leaving a toxic relationship behind can create new opportunities for growth and self-discovery. This is reflected in the lines "Leaving me will leave me free to reach above now," which imply that ending a relationship can be a cathartic experience.


In conclusion, "All the Days" is a poetic and moving exploration of the complexities of love and loss. It captures the sense of nostalgia and heartbreak that comes with the end of a relationship and offers a message of hope for the future.


Line by Line Meaning

Time has come
The moment has arrived


A summer gone
A season has passed


A memory faded
A recollection has become dim


Lines are lost
Words are misplaced


In neon frost
Glowing colors and patterns


On the sunset
On the horizon of daylight's end


Golden flames
Fiery embers of affection


We drew our names
We left our mark


In the water
Within the depths of liquid


Now you're gone
Now you have departed


A love gone wrong
A romance that did not work out


But I'll make it
But I will persevere


All the days we had together
The duration of our shared existence


You can't teach
One cannot instruct


A heart to reach
An individual's emotional desire to connect


Out to another
With someone else


Leaving me
Discontinuing with me


Will leave me free
Will liberate me


To reach above now
To elevate myself


Oh and when the light is lost the night will follow
The absence of illumination begets darkness


Our memory falls into the sun
Our recollection descends into the horizon


And when the night is lost the light will follow
The vanishing of shadows results in brightness


Our memory cannot take us back
Our recollection cannot revisit the past


All the days we had together
The duration of our shared existence

Some of the most emotionally charged and powerful close-ups I have seen. And when the camera pulls out at the start of the first chorus and reveals the dancers - perfectly timed and executed. AND that older lady dancer at the end, (we only see her at the beginning and then in a few shots towards the ending, she mostly smiles in her shots) has incredible presence on screen, seems to be feeling the music with her whole body. Absolutely fantastic - Hope to see more of your work! Good Luck :)

Ya los he escuchado infinidad de veces, en loop, hasta el hartazgo, y a ún así no me canso de darle play a ambas rolas. Para mí este video es su statement como banda: "No tocamos para las nuevas generaciones, ni estamos de moda, tocamos para todos, y todos tienen que bailar y ser felices." AMO sus rolas, y aunque aún no podemos escuchar un álbum completo, para mí, estas dos rolas me parecen muy significativas. Por favor, ya lancen el álbum, y para mí ya son la mejor nueva banda del 2013 :D
