"Touch" is from "Atlas: II" by Sleeping At Last - fanlink.to/Atlas2
Lyrics:
TOUCH
when will i feel this
as vivid as it truly is,
fall in love in a single touch,
and fall apart when it hurts too much?
can we skip past near-death clichés
where my heart restarts, as my life replays?
all i want is to flip a switch
before something breaks that cannot be fixed.
i know, i know- the sirens sound
just before the walls come down.
pain is a well-intentioned weatherman
predicting God as best he can,
but God i want to feel again.
rain or shine, i don’t feel a thing,
just some information upon my skin.
i miss the subtle aches when the weather changed,
the barometric pressure we always blamed.
all i want is to flip a switch
before something breaks that cannot be fixed.
invisible machinery,
these moving parts inside of me
well, they’ve been shutting down for quite some time,
leaving only rust behind.
well i know, i know- the sirens sound
just before the walls come down.
pain is a well-intentioned weatherman
predicting God as best he can,
but God i want to feel again,
oh God i want to feel again.
down my arms, a thousand satellites
suddenly discover signs of life.

Touch is one of those songs that breaks you then puts you back together again.
Actually all of sleeping at least put me back together
yes, and it's beautiful 💗💛💙
Well said
This
this comment could be a reference to his song five ._.
Who also thinks sleeping at last, should be recognized world wide?
His art should be appreciated for everybody!
I love sleeping at last! Love from Taiwan!
Been loving it here, since I discovered it over a year ago. I'm not religious but there are many 'Gods' & Goddesses. 💖 From Melbourne, Australia. 😊🐨✌
Selfish but I kinda want him to stay smaller. It feels more personal and meaningful
Me too man,me too
It would save many lives for sure.
Sleeping at last is such rare and beautiful talent that a lot of people don't know
facts i’m glad he’s still our little secret though no tiktoks here😂
@@jaredlloyd4016 couldn't agree more
"What a rare and beautiful thing it truly is that we exist" haha your comment made me think of it from Saturn
Little secret? Saturn has 54 million views, you guys are delusional. Just because something isnt in the "pop" genre doesn't make it not popular. Plenty of popular rock songs arent played on mainstream media, that's not a metric of fame. Not that mainstream fame is all that important anyway. Theres artists with much smaller followings than him on CZcams and sound cloud who make a sizable income. Please let's not turn this into a "I'm not like other girls" thread where we feel special for simply listening to an artist.
@@pandaprince7677 idk about you but if I ask one of my friends if they know how SAL is they never do but then they know mainstream names like Harry Styles and Billie Eilish (who I also like- no shade) so I think this person is just trying to say that SAL deserves more credit. Its kind of not arguable since it's an opinion... both you and them are allowed to think what you want so please be polite :)
"Fall in love in a single touch and fall apart when it hurts too much."
Dang that hit harder that a freight train
"Rain or shine, I don't feel a thing.
Just some information upon my skin." This almost brought me to tears. It so accurately depicts apathy and depression.
wait, i thought it was about a paralyzed person, someone who can't 'touch' or feel anything?
@@TheGronexGHT I kinda thought it was almost certainly about feeling numb emotionally. As the OP has said, apathy.
I believe the very last line is about self harm ('satellites down the arms,') that help to finally feel something.
This song helped me feel sorrow when i needed to feel something after a year of losing myself and now i can finally say that i healed and i just wanna thank you because your music healed and shaped me this past 4 years of listening to your music
This songs continues to crush me, after more than a year after I first heard it. I'm glad it has helped someone.
i can only hope
How
Always have loved this song. Makes me think of my grandpa who has tremors and his hands always shake. He has always worked with his hands and now he could have a hot tea spilt on his hand and he doesn't feel it. When I see him there always is a new scab or bandaid. He built stuff and used many machines and now cannot use them. Sold many or gave them away. It is sad to see him deteriorating in front of my eyes. " But God I wanna feel again. " oh God let him feel again.
To whoever is reading this: I hope you have a wonderful day :)
U too bro
May God bless you in the Mighty name of Jesus Christ my friend.
1:27
“Oh God I wanna feel again”. Hit me hard,
for someone who is going though depression,
it's literally the sentence that repeats in my head everyday.
I know, but you will, just keep fighting
@@gabe2791Gabemupe yea, thanks for the support 😊
I feel the same and thought the same you did when i heard this part
I was depressed a lot in 2020. For awhile, I was suicidal. I was thinking the other day, and I realized something- I’m not depressed anymore! I haven’t been since January. It’s a crazy feeling to not be consumed with such self-pity, sadness, and emptiness. And let me tell you... it hurts like hell.... BUT it’s amazing to actually feel again. I cry less, and I smile more. By cutting off our emotions, we actually miss more good than bad stuff. I wish I could say this in a way that you could understand. I would never understand this six months ago.
I really hope you get better soon. You DESERVE to feel happy. I’ll be thinking of you❤️
it's like they are programmed to understand and comfort you. their songs, lyrics and also music videos... they all ease my mind and give me peace
“Oh God, I want to feel again.” This is so relatable.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but the line
"All I want is to flip a switch
before something breaks that cannot be fixed" is my favourite.
I would like to say to me "Touch" is a song about being numb and wanting to feel whatever you touch, and at the end of the song it feels like they finally get to feel whatever they been lacking. This song means a lot to me, thank you for creating it 😊
I am listening to that at 3am. Probably the best decision
This song speaks the language of our souls
This is one of the most underrated singers that I know. No.
The most underrated.
Whenever I listen to Sleeping At Last its like he's feeling for my heart. The songs' are crying the tears I can't cry.
"Down my arms, a thousand satellites suddenly discover signs of life."
I really like that line.
When you have loved, really loved and now they are no longer here. You notice their space, the chair where they laughed, the heavy silences. Sometimes i think i see you or the perfume smell and i turn, hopeful that the universe has ripped and it’s not true but it is just someone else. The air feels heavy in my chest and the tears come, hard. God I wanna feel again.
Dear person whoever reads this,
Hey, you, yes, I am talking right to you. I hope you will see yourself with the eyes I see you one day, because I can tell you have some awesome music taste :) You’re such a beautiful human being and worth and enough. I hope you know that you do only need yourself to be happy, I know society build up the standard that whenever you’re alone you’re not living a happy live. But in fact that is not true, if you start to realize that you actually deserve all the good things happening to you, you will treat yourself a lot nicer. I hope you let yourself rest, don’t beat yourself up over past mistakes, over regret, and over everything your mind wants to destroy you. I wish I could remove all those demons inside of your head because you deserve to feel happy. If you ever feel lonely then watch the sky, because you know, someone, at the same time is watching the sky too, maybe feeling the same way..I am glad you exist and I hope you won’t ever remove your own spot in this world, maybe you don’t feel like you belong here but, Angel, then build your home here. I don’t want you to leave this world unhappy. I want you to live every little second, I want you to feel alive, I don’t want you to see yourself just existing. You deserve it. Whatever happened, it’s not your fault, the demons in your head recognize that you have a beautiful heart, they want to take it because they have never seen such beautiful heart as yours, so why let them win over you? . You’re not selfish for isolating yourself, but you deserve to talk to someone. If you’re reading this than please never forget to breath and smile.
Don’t live up to other standards! It’s your story and not theirs.
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one.
I love you and send you hugs.
You’re so strong, you’re still here, and I am proud of you.
YOU ARE NOT USELESS. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE WORTH IT. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE LOVED. READ THAT AGAIN.
I AM GLAD YOU EXIST. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT A PROBLEM. YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. READ THAT AGAIN.
You’re not a burden to anyone, don’t be afraid to talk, to use your voice.
You’re beautiful inside out.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. READ THAT AGAIN.
I WISH I COULD HUGH YOU RIGHT NOW, SO A VIRTUAL HUG WILL DO.
It hurts me to see you’re in pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you.
I love u I love u I love u I love u I love u please don’t go.
I am sorry that no one is hearing you, I am sorry no one is noticing that you have lost yourself. I wish I could take your pain away, it hurts me to see the pain in your eyes. I love you trough my words and I mean it. I just want you to stay, hold on a little longer okay? Please? For me.??
I hope you have an awesome day/ morning/ evening/ night.
If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you.
If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits.
If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re stronger than you think, I know you will make it :)
All I want for you is to stay and feel alive.
Now wipe those tears away and smile for me, you really don’t know much a smile can brighten someone’s day, do you? I hope one day yours will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
I need you here with me :).
Remember crying is not weakness, let it out as much as you can but don’t let the emotion control you by giving up. It’s okay, you’re here, you’re safe, you can let it out.
Did anyone asked you, how you are feeling today? If not, how are you really? I don’t think you’re doing good, but you will feel good at one point. Don’t give yourself up.
And anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :).
Enough with beating up yourself for today, okay?!
- The stranger that cares about you more than anything.
I hope this is enough for you to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. I hope you can stay.
I hope you will remember my words- becho :)
❤️❤️
thank you. so so much.
✨❤️
Wow..........Thank you❤️
not me crying immediately ?? i didn’t know i needed that quite much. ❤️
Veraciously, The Most Underrated Artist Ever Seen.
"sleeping at last" you have the talent and the love to creat these lyrics and sounds that are really really a poem with sound, i dont see these things in another musician,
Touch is the song that reminds me of my late Chihuahua who passed away a few months ago. I just remember this song playing in my head when I went outside and seeing the sunlight hit my face and seeing my dad digging a hole in the backyard for her. I play this song for her outside because when she heard this song it always looked like she smiled. Now I sing this song outside right next to her grave. Now there is roses growing on her grave. This song brings back all the memories I had with her and sometimes I listen to this song on repeat and cry for hours. This song really inspired me to stay alive.
I'm so sorry for you loss, but this truly sounds like a wonderful way to remember her. I hope you're in a good place right now!
🥺😢😭💖🙏💖
Sleeping at last's songs are like a moment out of time... they are a blessing
i love how the visual textures and the song both make me feel something
Feels like being touch starved... yearning for close contact you're afraid you'll never get.
this song is one of the most heartbreaking yet beautiful songs there is
Sleeping At Last deserves so much more recognition, they're the definition of criminally underrated
His music feels from another world, and we are just trespassing through it.
Such a strong piece of art, just feeling like falling from one of my loudest, amazing childhood dream... Well, there is no place that I feel like this, except art.
Thank you so much for the true peace and beauty you give. Every song is so relatable and I am so grateful for you ❤️
i genuinely love sleeping at last so much and i feel as if theyre so underrated 🧡
I've been sleeping on my desk for the past 2 hours and listening to this again unlocked new emotions
For me this song has so many meanings, one of them is about depression and how hard it is to feel anything at all when you are depressed, it makes you miss even the smallest things that made you feel something, the end being the day when the fog finally lifts up and you feel alive again.
Sleeping At Last is honestly so underrated. I feel humbled everytime I think of how lucky I was to come across them.
this song is what keeps me going, day and night.
I love Sleeping At Last so much! I don't think I'll ever be able to describe in words how so many times thier songs have saved me. There's always this little hope and you help me find it. There's always faith in my heart and you help me believe in it. forever grateful to you❤️
Been a fan of SAL for about 5 years and with every song and music video, i feel as if my soul is being spoken to. Honestly every song just brings an emotion i cant even put into words 🤎
This song makes me reminisce about my trauma, how the things I've been through forced me to completely shut down emotionally to survive - but it does so in a strangely comforting way.
"Sleeping at Last" is not just a music brand it's a feeling only those can understand that can't sleep without music in their ears silencing their thoughts and still making them grief without making them spiral in what lead them here! There's beauty in grieving and I hope we all have the strength to do it without having to silence those thoughts 🖤
Your voice is always touching my soul. I don't know why
Ive never loved music videos more than sleeping at lasts. his music videos are absolutly summit else
It's like your an Angel on the other side of the Vail.. thinking about what it was like being human, having raw feelings and emotions. Life is beautiful in all its hardness and loveliness.
💜
This song for me is part of my life soundtrack. Beautiful song
I dont know why, but this song + the video had my eyes tearing up. Just something so beautiful about the lyric together with the video
Saturn was played at my sister's burial. Ever since listening to Sleeping At Last first, I've loved the songs. This one especially. It makes me feel so sad and yet so calm at the same time.
The melodies... You hit the spot with this one. Been thinking about my daughter tonight and I'm singing to myself with a bottle in my hand. This was the song I needed.
I love Sleeping At Last. The music, lyrics, and the way he sings are simply breathtaking. ❤️
My best friend introduced me to these songs. I can't even imagine my life without these songs now. I can listen to them when I need to cry, and I can listen to them if I want to be happy. Thank you so much for putting such beautiful emotion into these songs, and for making them so pure and clean for all ages, genders, and feelings.
I'm short of words to thanks you guys! Please never stop making outstanding masterpieces. Thank you, because your music has made me feel alive again. A thousand times thank you!
You deserve more recognition by the world, the work you do is incredible, you have helped me a lot in difficult moments of my life with your so beautiful songs, I will always be grateful
It's just so magical
Sleeping At Last truly makes music that touch your soul 😢
How come this isn't viral? They are so good, their songs are my comfort zone.
When I was at my lowest last January, I came across you and I could finally sleep at last. Not a day goes by without the music filling my home with beauty and life. Thank you 🙏
This is art. Just. Heals broken souls with ease
Touch is one of those songs that touch your soul and heals it at the same time.
This song is truly beautiful, the emotion the sadness the longing. This is first time I've heard this song and I love it. It made me cry kinda hard.
"Pain is a well-intentioned weatherman" hits different when you know pain as a friend.
Sleeping at last never fail to write songs that express and put words on the emotions that I am unable to express or put words on myself
Thank you so much
Never been so fast in my LIFE 🥲
I don’t think anyone realizes how much these songs mean to me, how much they help me. I don’t think I would be here but I’m glad I am. Thank you 💛
thank you for healing people and making them feel again.
Amazing, there are no words. Thanks.
This music video, like all of your other songs, are absolutely beautiful. This song has "touched" me deeply and I can't explain in words how grateful I am to have the privilege to listen to this music. Thank you, Sleeping at Last, for the many smiles and tears.
I always imagine this song playing in some drama series, in a scene where one of the characters gets saved from s*icidе by the other just in the right time, and they try to calm other down
Wow those lyrics are making my skin melt off. How are you so amazing? I wish there is a book filled with your poetry I will read it over and over and over again.
sleeping at last creates such amazing music. When i finally discovered them, i knew i found the artist that creates music i could listen to on any occasion. Their music helps me understand how i truly feel, but putting my jumbled thoughts into something i understand. i could never get tired of listening to their music
So long waiting for this video! Thank you so much!
Beautiful masterpiece as always. I never get tired of your music. Thank you!
This song is one of my all time favorites. I lost touch with several parts of myself and this song has kept me standing. I’m only a teenager yet your songs move me to tears every time. Thank you.
The first song I heard from Sleeping At Last almost 4 years ago.
My life changed a lot since then.
Thanks Ryan.
This is the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Thank you for making it. Thank you so, so much.
Definitely a forever fave
Beautiful as always, thank you so much for your music. Keep up the amazing work ❤️.
One of the most beautiful songs ever
wow beautiful song sung so beautiful the video is absolutely fantastic loved it xx thank you xx
you are everything. thank you for your words and your music. it means the world to me
i feel like people dont talk about the effect "down my arms a thousand satelites suddenly discover signs of life" has enough,
it has a hold on me , the struggles of being depressed amd not feeling anything accept the pain of when you harm yourself, it isnt done of but if need to be reminded you are still alive.. this line has me in a fucking threshold, it hurts but also gives clarity to a lot of things..
Beautiful as always...
absolutely beautiful
i love how you present nature in these clips.
I burst into tears no matter what mood I'm in - this song has bonded itself to my emotional dissonance I can tap in from any emotional 0 point I truly believe there is a definition implying the entire Book of Life encoded with the emotions that created this song
I’m a fan for 4 years. I’ve smiled, cried, celebrated and healed through your pieces of art. I rarely share it with anyone because I want it to remain my little secret and yet, I want everyone to listen to your masterpieces. Thank you. Never stop making music.
When I get sad I come here just to make me feel something like a very deep ocean of peace ....thank you sleeping at last you are doing something greater in everyone who listens to your song...
Sleeping at last is an art. Each song is so artistically beautiful which touches the soul.. just like an underatted gem 🌌
Beautiful, as always!
Beautiful...
BEAUTIFUL!!! YOUR VOICE!!! 💚💙
Sleeping at last is way too underrated 😣😔
Such a wonderful song
Whenever i listen to this i think of the people who have past in my life..and i cry, everyone please stay safe during this pandemic i know its hard but just please be safe :( always wear a mask if needed gloves. Love y’all 🙏 Happy Valentines Day ♥️♥️♥️
These songs.... can make you feel the universe.
I absolutely love this
I love how we're always getting content from SAL and yet there's no pressure to perform or keep pumping out new stuff. Being a fan of sleeping at last feels like being a healthy relationship lol
there's something about this that makes me feel something
i'm not sure but i think it might be hope
or joy
or both
such a beautiful and perfect visual for this song 🥺
Love this song so much!
Love this song
You guys are amazing!! Your music hits me and make me think about life in ways I have never thought possible whether they are good memories are bad. Every one of your songs makes me think differently.
