Never Look Back
Still Life Projector Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Felt you here just one night after
I'm afraid to see you
I am hot
But you are cold now
So bring me peace
and say

So let it be known here

I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me
So let it be known here
I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me

But our time was far from over
There is a lesson here
Now I'm cut off from what i wanted
But don't say it aloud here to me

So let it be known here
I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me
So let it be known here
I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me

Tell your lies

Our time is far from over now
We made it last this long somehow

So let it be known here
I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me
So let it be known here
I promise you
That I will never look back
It's the other side of me

And I will never look back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Never Look Back" by Still Life Projector conveys a feeling of fear and resignation over ending a relationship, but the singer is ultimately determined not to look back and to move on. The first verse sets the tone of the song, with the singer recalling feeling the presence of the person they’re afraid to see again. The second verse talks about their time being far from over and how they both learned a lesson from their relationship. The chorus then reiterates the singer's determination to move on and the promise not to look back is repeated twice. The bridge is where the singer acknowledges that the other person may be lying about their feelings, but it does not matter as they have made it this far and are not going to look back.

The song’s message seems to be about the power of letting go and not holding onto past relationships that may no longer serve us well. While the lyrics convey pain and regret over the end of the relationship, there is an underlying sense of hope and healing that comes through the determination to move forward. The repetition of the chorus serves as a reminder to the singer about their resolution to never look back and to embrace the future instead.

Line by Line Meaning

Felt you here just one night after
I remember feeling your presence with me only for a brief moment last night

I'm afraid to see you
I am fearful of encountering you

I am hot
I am passionate and intense

But you are cold now
You have become distant and indifferent

So bring me peace and say
Provide me solace and say something calming

So let it be known here, I promise you that I will never look back, It's the other side of me
I vow to never dwell on the past and embrace a new part of myself

But our time was far from over, there is a lesson here, Now I'm cut off from what I wanted, But don't say it aloud here to me
Though our time together ended, there was a valuable lesson to be learned. I am now deprived of my desires, but please don't mention it to me

Tell your lies
You may continue to deceive me

Our time is far from over now, We made it last this long somehow
Our time together may not have ended completely, since we managed to make it work for so long

And I will never look back
I will steadfastly move forward without regretting or revisiting the past
