All Time Low is a marvelous song performed by Jon Bellion along with Stormzy. The song despite being about one’s lowest point in life, aftermath of a breakup, is an extremely up-beat and mood lifting piece of music.In this song Jon is out of the denial phase of the breakup and now is just putting his current feelings out there for the world to see and not being ashamed of it or even seeking sympathy. He’s simply just putting out his experience for others to relate and follow the way out of this lowly phase of life.
I, was the knight in shining armor in your movie
Would put your lips on mine and love the aftertaste
Now I’m a ghost, I call your name, you look right through me
You’re the reason I’m alone
Jon recalls early phases of his relationship and addresses how he is dwelling on those memories of the past. He was the savior rescuing the princess, a knight in shining armor of which every girl dreams of , who comes to save her from this evil world and takes her away in a world of his own. He wants relive the feeling of bliss when he thinks of her, reminding of her is his taste buds. But he realize that all of that is in the past and he can’t obtain the same feeling again from that same person.
He grieves how now she does not even acknowledges his existence and just looks straight through him as if he is a ghost, this sort of behavior becomes necessary,though seeming cruel is surely is, as being in touch even after a breakup can trigger the feeling of familiarity and no matter how thought out it was anyone can easily revert back to same old ways and stuck in same kind of state one was desperately running away from.
I, I’ve been trying to fix my pride
But that shit’s broken, that shit’s broken
Lie (lie, lie), lie, l-lie, I try to hide
But now you know it
That I’m at an all time
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low
The thing that takes the biggest hit from a breakup is one’s pride that is if your pride is based off of only your accomplishments in the relationship you have invested in.Of course one is advise to manufacture his pride in academics and accolades but regardless you take a big hit right up your pride. No matter how hard you try it won’t before things run their course and time heals it for you.All you can do in this situation instead of just lying around weeping all day and destroying your life is get busy on working on yourself casting yourself in a much better and far off version of yourself.
