All my life
Jesse Harris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Think about what you said
Late in haze of night into morning
With eyes turning to red
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
Don't cease to seem unreal
But with a kiss late in the darkness
I know how I used to feel
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
On you and I
I don't see any reason to stay here
I don't see any way out right now
When can a smile, when will the sunshine
Not cease to seem unreal?
It's with a kiss late in the darkness
You feel how you used to feel
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
On you and I
The song "All My Life" by Jesse Harris evokes feelings of contemplation and longing as the singer reflects on their past experiences with love. Throughout the song, the singer expresses their desire to have encountered some sort of positive sign and their disappointment with the way things have turned out. They mention how every once in a while they think about what was said one night, described as a "haze of night into morning," and how it has affected their view of the world around them. The lyrics paint a picture of a person who is struggling to find hope and meaning in their life, and how they have lost faith in the idea of happiness.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind / All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind." This repetition reinforces the idea that the singer has been waiting for something positive to happen for a long time, but has only been met with disappointment and negativity. The verses detail specific instances where the singer has felt let down, such as when even a smile or sunshine seems unreal. However, the song ends on a slightly more optimistic note, as the singer acknowledges that they can still remember how it felt to be happy and in love, even if it was fleeting.
Line by Line Meaning
Once in a while I think about it
Occasionally, I reflect on it
Think about what you said
Recall your words
Late in haze of night into morning
During the transition from night to day when everything seems unclear
With eyes turning to red
As my mind becomes overloaded, my eyes start to burn
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
Throughout my existence, I hoped for a sign of positivity
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
Throughout my existence, I was able to hear trouble coming my way
Now even a smile, even the sunshine
Even when joy and happiness is present
Don't cease to seem unreal
It still seems impossible to truly be happy
But with a kiss late in the darkness
However, when I receive a deep, loving kiss during the night
I know how I used to feel
I reminisce on what it feels like to have genuine contentment
On you and I
Between us
I don't see any reason to stay here
I cannot identify a justification for continuing to exist in this current situation
I don't see any way out right now
I cannot find an escape from this negative state of mind
When can a smile, when will the sunshine
When will happiness and positivity feel real
It's with a kiss late in the darkness
Finally, it's the loving touch of another person that brings me joy
You feel how you used to feel
It allows me to revisit the sense of happiness that I thought I had lost forever
