All My Life
Embracing Life's Omen: A Journey Through Jesse Harris' All My Life
Lyrics
Once in a while I think about it
Reflecting occasionally on a particular subject
Think about what you said
Contemplating what was previously spoken
Late in haze of night into morning
In the late hours of the night transitioning into morning
With eyes turning to red
Eyes becoming red, possibly indicating fatigue or emotion
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
Awaiting a positive sign or premonition throughout life
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
Listening to and recognizing the approaching challenges or difficulties
Now even a smile, even the sunshine
Even positive elements like a smile or sunshine feel unreal
Don't cease to seem unreal
The sense of unreality persists, despite positive experiences
But with a kiss late in the darkness
A moment of realization or clarity through a kiss in the darkness
I know how I used to feel
Recapturing a past emotional state through a kiss
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
Continued anticipation for a positive sign or omen
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
Continued awareness of approaching challenges or difficulties
On you and I
Emphasizing a connection between the speaker and another person
I don't see any reason to stay here
Expressing a lack of motivation to remain in the current situation
I don't see any way out right now
Feeling trapped or without apparent solutions at the moment
When can a smile, when will the sunshine
Questioning when positive experiences will feel genuine
Not cease to seem unreal?
Reiteration of the unreal feeling associated with positive moments
It's with a kiss late in the darkness
Finding a connection to the past emotional state through a kiss in the dark
You feel how you used to feel
Re-experiencing emotions from the past through a kiss
All my life I waited to see an omen of the good kind
Continued hope for a positive sign or premonition in life
All my life I listened and heard the thunder as it rose behind
Remaining vigilant and aware of challenges or difficulties
On you and I
Highlighting a shared experience between the speaker and another person
