Touch
Shura/City Lies Lyrics

There's a love between us still
Despite the changes, there still exists a strong emotional bond between the two individuals in the relationship

But something's changed and I don't know why
The singer has noticed a shift in the dynamic of the relationship, but is unsure of the cause behind it

And all I wanna do is go home with you
The singer desires to be close to their partner, both physically and emotionally

But I know I'm out of my mind
Despite their strong yearnings, the artist acknowledges the irrationality of their desires in this particular situation

I wanna touch you but I'm too late
The artist feels like they missed their chance to connect with their partner in a meaningful way

I wanna touch you but there's history
The dynamic of their relationship has changed over time, making it difficult for the singer to connect with their partner in the same way

I can't believe that it's been three years
The singer feels surprised that time has passed so quickly, indicating that they may have lost touch with their partner

Now when I see you, it's so bittersweet
The artist feels mixed emotions when encountering their partner, reflecting a combination of both happiness and sadness

You wanna touch me but you're too late
The partner also feels a similar emotional connection, but feels like the opportunity to connect has already passed

You wanna touch me but there's too much history
The partner recognizes that the past events of their relationship have made it difficult to emotionally connect, making it difficult to move forward

Starting to live the lies we tell ourselves
Both individuals may feel like they are deceiving themselves or trying to force something that no longer exists, indicating a level of emotional dishonesty or denial

I only need you to be friends with me
The artist may be content with a platonic friendship with their partner, recognizing that the romantic aspect of their relationship may have run its course

I've never felt so close, but now I know it's over
Despite the intense emotional connection that is felt, the singer recognizes and accepts that their relationship has ended

Never felt, never felt, never felt
This repetition may indicate the singer's difficulty in expressing their emotions, or the cyclical nature of their thoughts and feelings towards their partner
