Touch
Kshmr Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, we want it all,
oh, that's impossible
We could lose it all,
in the garden of our life
If we take it all,
taste the forbidden fruit
Will it break us all?
We'll know,
we'll know when we touch

We'll know when we touch
We'll know when we touch
We'll know,
we'll know when we touch
We'll know,
we'll know

We'll know,
we'll know,
we'll know when we touch
We'll know,
we'll know,
we'll know when we touch

Yeah, we want it all,
oh, that's impossible
We could lose it all,
in the garden of our life
If we take it all,
taste the forbidden fruit

Will it break us all?
We'll know,
we'll know when we touch
We'll know when we touch
We'll know when we touch
We'll know,
we'll know when we touch
We'll know,
we'll know

We'll know

We'll know,
we'll know,
we'll know when we touch

We'll know,
we'll know,




we'll know when we touch
Of this Empire

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kshmr's song Touch explore the concept of desire and temptation. The first stanza talks about the human desire of wanting everything and the fear that comes with possibly losing everything in the process. The second stanza speaks about the metaphorical garden of life, and how indulging in the forbidden fruit, which could represent various temptations in life, might cause us to lose everything. The lyrics then pose the question: will it break us all? This suggests hesitation and fear towards acting on desire.


The chorus repeats the phrase "we'll know when we touch," highlighting the idea that the experience of giving in to temptation will be the only way to truly understand the consequences of one's actions. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the uncertainty and anticipation that the songwriter is feeling towards the outcome of yielding to temptation.


Overall, the lyrics of Touch illustrate the internal conflict one faces when considering whether to give in to their desires, weighing the cost of losing everything versus the potential reward of gaining everything, and the fear of the unknown and the consequences that may arise.
