Time is over

The song 'Time is Over' by Watchmen delves into the complexities of love, sacrifice, and emotional endurance. The lyrics paint a picture of a relationship fraught with challenges, yet bound by a deep commitment. The opening lines, 'If I could change your world / Maybe someday you would leave me alone,' suggest a desire to alleviate the partner's struggles, even if it means being left behind. This sentiment is further emphasized with the metaphor 'Sell your skin / To buy your soul,' indicating a willingness to make profound sacrifices for the sake of the loved one's well-being.

The recurring plea, 'Don’t push my heart / Against the edge,' highlights the emotional strain within the relationship. Despite the hardships, the narrator expresses unwavering support, promising to be there 'Until the end.' This steadfastness is a testament to the depth of their love and commitment. The chorus, 'I’m all you need / When time is over,' reinforces the idea that their love will endure beyond the trials and tribulations, providing a sense of comfort and stability.

The song also touches on themes of hope and belief in one's dreams. The line 'I believe that your dream / Will come true / If you only try' serves as an encouragement, suggesting that perseverance can lead to the fulfillment of aspirations. The repeated assurance of being 'all you need' when 'time is over' suggests a timeless, almost eternal love that transcends the immediate difficulties. Watchmen's musical style, characterized by emotive lyrics and a compelling melody, enhances the song's poignant message, making it a resonant anthem for enduring love and support in the face of adversity.
