Lyrics
watch your back as life comes over you
choose your weapon before you have to
you disappear in a sea of danger
if you’re gone
baby go faster
i’ve seen you dance
i’ve seen you dance to the radio
for gold again
you’re going for gold again
all my life i have waited for this moment
all my life tonight
tonight
touch the sky because now we are weightless
floating out into empty spaces
we are faceless
we are soldiers
we believe what you told us
(told us)
i’ve seen you dance
i’ve seen you dance to the radio
all my life i have waited for this moment
(beware the signs)
all my life tonight
(of buildings burning down)
all my life i have waited for this moment
(beware the tides)
all my life tonight
(we’re ocean sized)
and i lose myself (myself) in you (in you)
and i lose myself (myself) in you (in you)
all my life i have waited for this moment
(beware the signs)
all my life tonight
(of buildings burning down)
we’re running out of time
we got to get this right
here we are
here we are tonight
ocean sized (ocean sized)
all my life tonight (tonight)
ocean sized (ocean sized)
all my life tonight (tonight)
ocean sized
ocean sized
ocean sized
ocean sized
ocean sized
ocean sized
About The Song
Band Thoughts:
“When I was writing that song – when I was writing all the songs on the new album, really – I lost sight of the fact that I was writing for Bush. I can become very self-aware a lot of the time, and sometimes the best things come out when you just forget everything. I was in the studio messing around, and this riff just came out. It was huge. So I was like, ‘OK, let me go with this. Let me write this huge rock riff.’ It’s so much fun to play live, that song.” – Gavin Rossdale
(interview question) What’s your favorite Bush song and why?…”“All My Life.” It’s tough as nails, the lyrical content is inspiring, and there’s a double solo in it. “-Chris Traynor
Staff Thoughts:
"Reminiscent of Institute. I almost feel like the Bush Army is being addressed.. we being the soldiers and the following line almost our reaction to Bush news that sorta fell through again and again"- Laura
“I never thought about it addressing the Bush Army but after thinking about it you’re right. It does seem like it as we are soldiers and we believed what they told us. Profound. On a more important note though IT’S FREAKING AMAZING LIVE!!!!!!!” – Mark Torchia
