Losing Touch

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But still you cannot
Speak oh I can't breathe
I think I'm losing touch of us
Why I'm such in a rush to leave, to leave
And you swim
You taunted and reaped what you said
I can't forget
We go out in our Sunday's best
You wear your favourite flowing green sundress
Am I still made of stands?
Love don't let go of your sins
And you swim
You taunted and reaped what you said
But I can't neglect
I can't forget
Standing in routine
But still you cannot
Speak oh I can't breathe
I think I'm losing touch
I'm such in a rush to leave, to leave
And you swim
You taunted reaped what you said
But I can't neglect
I can't forget
And you swim
You taunted reaped what you said
But I can't neglect
I can't forget
The song "Losing Touch" by twentythreenineteen portrays the feeling of being stuck in a routine and losing connection with a loved one. The first verse suggests that the singer is struggling to communicate with their partner, as they feel like they are losing touch with each other. The line "Why I'm such in a rush to leave, to leave" implies that the singer may be considering leaving the relationship altogether.
The second verse paints a more positive picture of the relationship, with the couple going out in their best clothes and the singer admiring their partner's flowing green sundress. However, the line "Am I still made of stands?" suggests that the singer may be feeling insecure about their own feelings and commitment to the relationship. The line "Love don't let go of your sins" could be interpreted as a plea to hold onto their love and not let any mistakes or flaws get in the way.
The chorus repeats the idea of the partner taunting and reaping what they said, but the singer is unable to forget or neglect their feelings. The repetition of "And you swim" suggests that the partner is moving on while the singer is still struggling to hold onto the relationship.
Overall, the lyrics of "Losing Touch" capture the complex emotions of a relationship in turmoil, with the singer struggling to communicate and hold onto their connection with their partner.
