All Along
Iamjakehill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You put a hole in my chest, I put a hole into yours
There's really not much left of us and that I'm sure
So we should run while we can, the scene is fading to black
Now let me hold on your hand, I'll probably never look back
The grass was green, now it's all fucked up
Everything was goin' fine until we burnt it up
We're only wastin' time every time we try
But we stick around again, and I don't even know why

Rippin' at the seams, can you catch me when I'm fallin'?
Risky on the bet, fuck it, here we go, I'm all in
Loosenin' the grip, I'm only hanging by a thread
Call it how I see it, think we're better off dead

All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this
All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this

And now we're fallin' apart, I gotta pick up the pieces
My heart is a wreck, the way you kill me, I need it
You look at me like you don't even know that we're bleedin'
All I really need is you right here when I'm sleepin'
The ship got hit and we're sinkin' fast
So, baby, one last time, let's make this last
We're only wastin' time every time we try
But we stick around again, and I don't even know why

Rippin' at the seams, can you catch me when I'm fallin'?
Risky on the bet, fuck it, here we go, I'm all in
Loosenin' the grip, I'm only hanging by a thread
Call it how I see it, think we're better off dead

All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this
All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this

All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this

All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start
You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this
All along you played with my heart
We're doomed, we knew this all from the start




You crossed the line, I let you this time
Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Iamjakehill's song "All Along" are a reflection on a doomed relationship that was bound to fail from the start. The opening lines paint a picture of two people who have hurt each other so much that there's not much left of their relationship. The singer acknowledges that they should run, but they can't let go just yet. They're holding on to each other, even though the grass is now burnt and everything is falling apart. The singer knows that they are only wasting time by trying to make things work, but they can't help but stay.


As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that they are hanging by a thread, that they're risky and their ship has been hit, and they are sinking fast. But despite it all, they can't let go of each other. They're caught up in a cycle of hurt, but they can't stop themselves from going back to each other again and again.


The chorus repeats the same lines, "All along you played with my heart, we're doomed, we knew this all from the start. You crossed the line, I let you this time. Now I should've been cautious, but I couldn't stop this." These lines convey the singer's sense of resignation and defeat. They know that their relationship is doomed and that they should have been more cautious, but they couldn't help themselves.


In summary, "All Along" is an emotional and introspective song that delves into the complicated nature of relationships and the difficulty of letting go of someone you know is bad for you.

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized how much my life relates to the lyrics, and it’s just crazy. Thanks Jake and Josh for helping me get through life ❤️

@darnmysoda7366

Biscuit Fister you can just ignore my stuff if you don’t like it. I was just letting Jake know how much I appreciate what he does. Don’t try to bring people down because you feel insecure about yourself
