Song Meaning of “Taboo (Alt)” by Gene Summers
Taboo (Alt) by Gene Summers is a song about forbidden love in a conservative society. The narrator is in love with someone who is considered ‘taboo’ according to the laws and customs of their culture. Despite knowing that it is forbidden and that it could cost them everything they hold dear, they cannot help but feel the uncontrollable urge to love this person.
The song talks about how they often spend days dreaming of being together—away from prying eyes and judgments—totally immersed in their secret love. They both yearn to explore the depths of each other’s souls without any fear of repercussions.
Although such love is not accepted and frowned upon, the lovers don’t care. To them, their love is precious and real, and nothing can come between them. They are willing to take the risks and consequences of this taboo relationship for the promise of ultimate love, connection, and fulfillment.
