Give It All
Marcus Santoro Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm tired of waiting for the light to change
I'm gonna barricade the interstate
And every one will have to wait for me

Take it or leave it
It's how you receive it
Goodbye colours everything

Take it or leave it
But I choose to feel it
When my heart is suffering

Cuz when it's
All I have - I give it all
All I have - I give it all

When it's
All I have - I give it all
All I have - I give it all

It's just a fallacy that love is war
I couldn't live inside the mеtaphor
Spending every minutе keeping score

Take it or leave it
It's how you receive it
Goodbye colours everything

Take it or leave it
But I choose to feel it
When my heart is suffering

Cuz when it's
All I have - I give it all
All I have - I give it all
When it's

All I have - I give it all
All I have - I give it all

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marcus Santoro's song "Give It All" reflect the feeling of being tired of waiting for changes to happen and taking control of things oneself. The line "I'm tired of waiting for the light to change, I'm gonna barricade the interstate, and everyone will have to wait for me" is symbolic of the desire to move forward and take charge of one's own life. It suggests that the singer is willing to create obstacles to progress in order to prioritize their own journey.

The lines "It's just a fallacy that love is war, I couldn't live inside the metaphor, spending every minute keeping score" convey the idea that love is not a competition, and that participating in the game of love can be emotionally damaging.
