Latch Lyrics

Cover art for Latch lyrics by Disclosure

If you ask me, the the lyrics to this song are coming from an obsessed boyfriend or girlfriend, who looks normal at first glance. From the beginning of the song to the last line of the pre-chorus, it sounds like just a normal love song about a guy (or girl) who's enamored with another. But when the chorus kicks in, the tune of the song flows towards Disclosure's usual style: glitchy, dubstep-y, and the singing raises its pitch. Then he starts using words like "got you shackled" and "latched."

Song Meaning

I don't agree. The song is saying they're not letting go of a true love they've found with someone. Like it's so magical to them, that they don't ever want to let it go. Quite the oppersit of what youre saying.

My Interpretation

xxDanielleMxx, I agree with you, I think it's a cute love song. I could see how someone would interpret it as creepy though.
