All Along

Song Meaning

The lyrics open with a defiant refusal to explain the speaker's attraction, declaring their motivations are private. This quickly gives way to a sharp, repeated accusation: "You wasted my time." It's a direct, almost bitter statement of loss and resentment, setting an immediate confrontational tone. Beneath this outward defiance, a deeper internal conflict emerges. The speaker confesses to a long-standing unease, admitting they "never did feel right" deep down.
