Ocean of love
Echoes of Heartbreak: All Day Long's Tale of Love and Regret
Lyrics
One day you told me that everything
Recounting a moment when the other person assured that things would remain unchanged.
Is gonna be the same
Expressing skepticism or disappointment that the promised consistency did not materialize.
But now it turns out I'm the only one to blame
Acknowledging personal responsibility for the current situation, implying a sense of regret or guilt.
There was a time when we got wild, that's cool
Reflecting on a past period of excitement or spontaneity.
But now it's over, is it true?
Questioning whether the relationship is truly over.
So now I'm drunk and very high
Describing a state of intoxication and altered consciousness.
Yes, writing this song about you bitch
Addressing the subject directly, possibly in a derogatory manner.
It's all I know
Stating a limited understanding of the situation, possibly due to emotional distress.
Everything I meant to say
Expressing a desire to communicate thoughts and feelings that were left unspoken.
Everyone I want to blame
Attributing blame to various individuals.
So, fuck you!
Angrily dismissing the subject with strong language.
You broke my heart and that's so cruel
Acknowledging emotional pain caused by a broken heart.
But I will still always love you
Affirming enduring love despite the heartbreak.
I thought that you moved on
Expressing a belief that the other person has moved on in their life.
But I don't want to start thinking about you
Resisting the urge to dwell on thoughts of the other person.
I've tried to kiss you but that didn't work
Recalling an unsuccessful attempt to rekindle physical intimacy.
So now I'm all alone
Conveying a sense of loneliness and isolation.
So here I am just taking my first drink at the bar
Describing a symbolic act of starting anew with the first drink at a bar.
For a new start
Expressing a commitment to a fresh beginning.
No matter what will happen
Acknowledging uncertainty about the future but committing to a chosen narrative.
That's the story I'll hold on to
Emphasizing the importance of the chosen narrative as the defining story.
It's all I know
Repeating a limited understanding of the situation.
Everything I meant to say
Reiterating the desire to express unspoken thoughts and feelings.
Everyone I want to blame
Reiterating the attribution of blame to various individuals.
So, fuck you!
Repeating the strong, dismissive language directed at the subject.
You broke my heart and that's so cruel
Reaffirming the emotional pain caused by a broken heart.
But I will still always love you
Reiterating the enduring love despite the heartbreak.
