All In
Lifehouse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Standing on top of the edge it feels like it's going down
Everything stays in my mind feeling in a daze on the ground
Feels like it's gonna give life's to hard to live anymore
I think I've had enough things too tough
I'm out the door

All in all it's just another day now
You're falling down
What you gonna do
Standing on top of the world tonight
No ones looking back at you

Stand tall
It's going on
It's going on
It's gonna be just fine
You're holding on
Holding on today

Things don't stop and the others announced they're moving on
Salt & tears in the minds in the mouths of a bad decision
Too late for another mistake it's bringing me down
With all your faults it isn't your fault
what's going on

All in all it's just another day now
You're falling down
What you gonna do
Standing on top of the world tonight
No ones looking back at you

Stand tall
It's going on
It's going on
It's gonna be just fine
You're holding on
Holding on today

So you lost yourself
So you lost your way
Found life through someone else
But you threw it all away

All in all it's just another day now
You're falling down
What you gonna do
Standing on top of the world tonight
No ones looking back at you

Stand tall
It's going on
It's going on
It's gonna be just fine
You're holding on
Holding on today

Times rolling on
rolling on today




It's going on
Going on today

Overall Meaning

The song "All In" by Lifehouse is a love song about the deep commitment and dedication to a partner. The first verse describes the feeling of being alone and distant from one's partner, but in the chorus, the singer declares that they are "all in," holding nothing back and dedicating themselves entirely to the relationship. They profess a willingness to risk everything and "lose the game" in order to fully devote themselves to their loved one.


The second verse emphasizes the strength and durability of the relationship, emphasizing that there is "no breaking up this time" and that they've got each other's backs. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the singer's commitment, their willingness to take risks, and the sincerity of their pledge to fight for and devote themselves to the relationship.


Overall, "All In" is a declaration of love and devotion, an expression of the depth of feeling that one can have for another person, and a reminder that loving fully requires risk and sacrifice.


Line by Line Meaning

All night staring at the ceiling
Spending the entire night wide awake, staring at the ceiling


counting for minutes I've been feeling this way
Calculating and keeping track of how long the feeling has been present


So far away and so alone
Feeling distant and isolated from others


But you know it's alright
Despite the difficult feelings, there is still some sense of reassurance


I came to my senses
Having a realization or moment of clarity


Letting go of my defenses
Liberating oneself from a state of heightened self-protection


There's no way I'm giving up this time
Determined to keep trying and not surrender


Yeah, you know I'm right here
Staying present and available


I'm not losing you this time
Intending to hold onto someone and not let them slip away


And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
Fully committed and transparent, with nothing held back


I'm falling harder than a landslide
Experiencing emotions that are powerful and overwhelming


I spend a week away from you last night
Feeling the impact of separation from someone for an extended period of time


And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Reaching out and expressing a desire for someone else's company


Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
Risking potential failure or rejection, still making an unwavering effort


I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Fully invested for the present and future


There's no taking back what we've got
Having something too valuable and irreplaceable to lose


Too strong, we've had each other's back for too long
Having a deep bond that has withstood the test of time


There's no breaking up this time
Having the confidence that things won't fall apart


I want it, I want it, I want it
Expressing a strong desire for something


And I'm all in, calling out your name
Continuing to make a strong effort and reaching out


Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Committed and dedicated for the long term

Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
