Cover art for All To All lyrics by Broken Social Scene

For me this song is about a person who had some sort of crisis in life but there is some courage left or found ("the heal of the hurt, etc.")

("It's like the common law Was wall to wall And almost faded I've seen the gone to small The lost of law The almost made it")

the person nearly lost it's courage

("It seems like mine to shine You'll always find the lonely ray")

progress of getting hope back

("It's like the wall to fall The fall of all The laws are graded I've seen the lies that call The pictures tall The lines are made in It's like the fight to crawl My darling all you've lived your age")

it's about life as a whole, different steps , promises and what it takes to move on

My Interpretation

so basically this song is about hope
