What you said about me

It touched me

Too easy

Things to blame

You can't say

That I didn't do

Your mistakes, I always smothered

It won't be like before

We drift away slowly

Not like before

Far, slowly

We threw jabs at each other

Without listening

So the distance

Is felt, overused

You talk to me

You ask me to decide

But in my head

I just want to sell my CDs

I gave you my hand

When you doubted

I made your neck shine

Your fingers when you pouted

I listened to you well

What touched me

Is when you said

That our story was fake

Stop all that

It's cinema

Stop all that

It's cinema

What you said about me

It touched me

Too easy, the things

To blame

You can't say

That I didn't do

Your mistakes, I always smothered

It won't be like before

We drift away slowly

Not like before

Far, slowly

Tell me why

You shout in front of my parents

I won't insult you

Because I have only one word

If feelings are short

It's because there's a wolf around

It's the lack of love

That will create deficiencies

I was wonderful

Stromae

Don't make me swear on my life

I talk to another

Because it's going too fast

I loved you with all my heart

I can't slow down anymore

She wants to come back

It's dead

I can't slow down anymore

She wants to come back

It's no

What you said about me

It touched me

Too easy

Things to blame

You can't say

That I didn't do

Your mistakes, I always smothered

It won't be like before

We drift away slowly

Not like before

Far, slowly

What you said about me

It touched me

Too easy

Things to blame

You can't say

That I didn't do

Your mistakes, I always smothered

It won't be like before

We drift away slowly

Slowly

Not like before

Far, slowly

We owe each other nothing anymore

I keep only the good

I'm like amputated of a hand

We owe each other nothing anymore

We owe each other nothing anymore mama

I keep only the good

I'm like amputated of a hand

All this is real

It burns like the fire

Of Los Angeles

All this is real

Mama, all this is real

All this is real

It burns like the fire

Of Los Angeles

All this is real

It burns like the fire

Of Los Angeles

SONG MEANING

Touché tells a raw break-up story that feels as hot as the wildfires "burning like the fire of Los Angeles". The narrator looks back on a relationship where he always covered his partner’s mistakes, only to be hit by stinging accusations in return. Those words "m’ont touché" (they touched me) cut deep, and each verse paints how little by little the couple stops listening, throws sharp remarks, and drifts apart until "ça sera plus comme avant" – it will never be the same.

Yet the song is not just about heartbreak, it is also about self-preservation and ambition. Touché chooses music over drama – "je veux juste vendre mes CD" – and refuses to sink into movie-style melodrama ("c’est du cinéma"). Even when his ex pleads to come back, he stands firm, keeping only the good memories while accepting the pain is "réel". The result is an anthem of moving on: bruised, yes, but determined to keep creating and living at his own tempo.
