The Timecop1983 experience has always displayed the subtle sensitivities of Synth Romance in most of his works, which is always surprising as one would expect a much more aggressive and frenetic synthscape with a name like Timecop1983. It goes to show how wrong you are and that judging books (or producers in this case), by their cover is always a mistake.
His music is created to take you back to the '80s in a dreamy/romantic fashion.
Don't Let Go
Timecop1983 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
this is not the last of what we know
this is not a change in fortune
this is life, live it, don't let go
spend our days
searching for
one kind word
is it so hard to imagine
sleepless nights
holding on
to the fear
trying to get free from the self doubt
the truth is a hard thing to hear
your tomorrow
through these eyes
heart and soul
everything grows old the cycle
holds us together so together we fly or fold
this is not the end all be all
this is not the last of what we know
this is not a change in fortune
this is life, live it, don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
this is not the end all be all
don't let go
this is not the last of what we know
don't let go
this is not a change in fortune
this is life, live it, don't let go
this is not the end all be all
don't let go
this is not the last of what we know
don't let go
this is not a change in fortune
don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
The lyrics of "Don't Let Go" by Timecop1983 are a reflection on the challenges and uncertainties of life. The song opens with the lines "this is not the end all be all, this is not the last of what we know, this is not a change in fortune" which suggests that life is not always smooth sailing and that we should expect change and challenges. However, the chorus emphasizes the importance of living life to the fullest and not giving up in the face of adversity. The line "this is life, live it, don't let go" encourages listeners to hold on to hope and to persevere through life's difficulties.
The second verse of the song touches on the idea that we all seek validation and affirmation from others. The line "spend our days searching for one kind word" suggests that we are all looking for encouragement and support, but that we often let our fears hold us back. The line "trying to get free from the self-doubt, the truth is a hard thing to hear" acknowledges that facing the truth about ourselves can be difficult, but that it is necessary for personal growth.
Overall, the song's message is one of hope, perseverance, and the importance of living life to the fullest in the face of uncertainty.
