All of the Revisited
Zornik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There used to be a time
I stuck my head in the sand
But I didn't notice
I didn't notice

Life isn't always what you expect
But I didn't notice
I didn't notice

There used to be a time
I was so in control
But I didn't notice
I didn't notice

You were gone

I want something to break
I want something to give
I want something to live
I want everything else

I want something to break
I want something to give
My life is fan of impossible unsolvable routine

I want something to break
I want something to give
I want something to live
I want everything else

I want something to break
I want something to change

When I look back
I see a trail of deceit
But I didn't notice
I didn't notice

There were always be
A child inside of me




But I didn't notice
I didn't notice

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Zornik's "All of the Revisited" explore themes of denial and the search for something more fulfilling in life. The first few lines highlight the singer's past attempts to ignore reality, even when life became unexpected and difficult. The "head in the sand" metaphor suggests a conscious choice to avoid facing unpleasant truths or to stay stuck in a comfortable routine, rather than actively seeking change. However, the repetition of "I didn't notice" suggests that the singer may not have been aware of their own avoidance tactics until later.


The chorus reveals that the singer now desires a break from their unsatisfactory routine and longs for something more meaningful in their life. The lines "I want something to live / I want everything else" convey a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs. The repeated line "I want something to break / I want something to give" highlights their desire for a shift or breakthrough, whether it be in their personal relationships or in their own mindset.


The final verse uses the image of a "trail of deceit" to suggest that the singer may have been lying to themselves or failing to recognize the truth in their past experiences. The admission that there is still "a child inside of me" implies a sense of innocence or potential for growth, which the singer may be yearning to actualize. Overall, the song speaks to the human desire for change and growth, even in the face of difficult past experiences.
