Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴All we do is lie and waitAll we do is, all we do is lie and waitAll we do is feel the fade
I've been upside downI don't wanna be the right way roundCan't find paradise on the ground
I've been upside downI don't wanna be the right way roundCan't find paradise on the ground
All we do is hide awayAll we do is, all we do is hide awayAll we do is chase the dayAll we do is, all we do is chase the day
All we do is play it safeAll we do is live inside a cageAll we do is play it safeAll we do, all we do
I've been upside downI don't wanna be the right way roundCan't find paradise on the ground
I've been upside downI don't wanna be the right way roundCan't find paradise on the ground
All we do is hide awayAll we do is, all we do is hide awayAll we do is chase the dayAll we do is, all we do is chase the day
All I did was fail todayAll I wanna be is whites in waves
All I did was fail todayAll we do, all we do
"All We Do" is a melancholic song that is centered around the theme of escaping reality. The lyrics suggest that the two individuals in the song spend a lot of their time hiding away from the world, chasing fleeting moments of happiness, and living inside a cage of their own making. They feel like they are stuck in a cycle of lies, waiting for something to change, but life continues to fade away.
The opening lines, "All we do is hide away, all we do is, all we do is hide away" give the impression that they are running away from something, possibly from themselves or the difficulties of daily life. The verses "All we do is play it safe, all we do is live inside a cage" suggest that they may be afraid of taking risks or making any changes, which could lead to disappointment. They choose instead to hide their feelings, waiting for something to happen while chasing after happiness, constantly feeling like they are just missing it.
The lines, "I've been upside down, I don't wanna be the right way round, can't find paradise on the ground" signify that the person singing is tired of the norms and daily life structure. They desire a change of perspective that avoids the traditional way of doing things. These lines showcase the desire to achieve something extraordinary beyond the traditional ways, just as paradise isn't found on the ground.
Overall, All We Do is a beautiful and despairing song that perfectly captures the feeling of being stuck and life fading away.
All we do is hide awayWe constantly avoid confronting our problems and hide from reality.
All we do is, all we do is hide awayOur sole activity is to escape from our responsibilities.
All we do is chase the dayWe are always striving to achieve more and seeking instant gratification, instead of being content with what we have.
All we do is, all we do is chase the dayOur existence is defined by the constant pursuit of fleeting pleasures and accomplishments.
All we do is lie and waitWe are passive and resigned to waiting for something good to happen to us without taking any action.
All we do is, all we do is lie and waitWe do not make the effort to improve our situation and simply wait for life to pass us by.
All we do is feel the fadeWe are aware that life is fleeting and constantly changing, and we feel lost and uncertain about our future.
All we do is, all we do is feel the fadeEvery action we take seems insignificant and pointless in the grand scheme of things.
I've been upside downI've been feeling disoriented and unsure of myself.
I don't wanna be the right way roundI don't want to conform to society's expectations and norms.
Can't find paradise on the groundI cannot find true happiness and fulfillment in the material world.
All we do is play it safeWe avoid taking risks and prefer to stay in our comfort zone.
All we do is live inside a cageOur fears and insecurities prevent us from fully experiencing life and taking advantage of all its opportunities.
All we do, all we doThese patterns of behavior define the entirety of our existence.
All I did was fail todayI did not succeed in achieving my goals today.
All I wanna be is whites in wavesI want to experience the freedom and happiness that comes with being in the ocean's white waves.
All we do, all we doOur lives are defined by these patterns of behavior, and it seems there is no escape from them.
