They were originally assembled as a death metal band under name 'Kaamos' ('Polar night' in English) in Lahti, Finland in 1995 by guitarist and vocalist Tom Mikkola, drummer Aki Hanttu and bassist Teppo Taipale. They changed their name to Entwine in 1997 when they decided to change the musical style to gothic metal and rhythm guitarist and vocalist Panu Willman was added shortly after to the band's line-up. In December of that year, Entwine recorded its first demo, entitled Divine Infinity. In February of 1998 keyboard player Riitta Heikkonen joined the band.

Learn to Let Go
Entwine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How to learn to realize, things we feel inside
Oh, why I have these strange emotions
And the answers that I found
They're not enough for me.
It's time we're reaching out for more
It's time we're reaching out for love
'Cause it's time to realize what are we for.
And now I've gathered all the answers
Now I've learned to realize, learned to let go
Arise, so you can feel it in you
My search has come to an end, or has it just begun?
It's time we're reaching out for more
It's time we're reaching out for love
Well, it's time to realize what are we for
'Cause it's time to realize what are we for.
The lyrics of Entwine's song "Learn to Let Go" are reflecting on the search for understanding the complex emotions individuals face in their lives. The opening lines "In this life, I'm searching for the reasons, How to learn to realize, things we feel inside" highlight the journey of self-discovery that often involves trying to understand and make sense of our inner thoughts and emotions. The sentiment of confusion is amplified as the lyrics explore the concept of feeling strange emotions that often leave an individual perplexed.
As the song progresses, the artist encourages listeners to look beyond the answers they have found so far and to search for more, to reach out for love and to determine what their purpose is. The lyrics "It's time we're reaching out for more, It's time we're reaching out for love, well, it's time to realize what are we for, Cause it's time to realize what are we for" represent a call to action to search for meaning and to learn how to let go of the things that have been holding us back.
In the final verse of the song, the artist suggests that they have found some answers and have learned to let go, but there is still more to discover. The lyrics "And now I've gathered all the answers, Now I've learned to realize, learned to let go, Arise, so you can feel it in you, My search has come to an end, or has it just begun?" reinforce the idea that the journey of self-discovery is never-ending, and there is always more to uncover.
Overall, the song speaks to the universal human desire to make sense of our emotions, discover our purpose, and find fulfillment in life. It encourages listeners to keep searching for answers and to let go of the things that are holding them back to live a more fulfilling life.
