Neon Indian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you wouldn't understand
But you wouldn't understand
Old Soul
I don't know if you know
I don't know if you know
Or didn't show
Everything comes apart if you find the strand
All it takes is a hand
All it takes is a hand
The song "6669" by Neon Indian explores the idea of fragility and how a single action or decision can have a significant impact on our lives. The opening lines "Limitless weight held by a single strand/But you wouldn't understand" signify the idea that just like how a single strand can barely hold limitless weight, our emotions and psyche too are delicate and can get affected by little things that people may not understand. The next lines "Old Soul/I don't know if you know/I don't know if you know/Or didn't show" are reflective of someone talking to an older, wiser individual, willing to share their experiences and wisdom. Despite their willingness to share, the individual is unsure whether the recipient is open to receiving the information, or if it's just falling on deaf ears.
The chorus "Everything comes apart if you find the strand/All it takes is a hand/All it takes is a hand" highlights the extreme fragility and vulnerability that we all possess. The slightest wrong move can make everything around us collapse, just like a strand of hair holding onto excessive weight. The final line of the chorus "All it takes is a hand" signifies that the damage can be done easily, and therefore, we have to be cautious about our actions.
Line by Line Meaning
Limitless weight held by a single strand
The immense burden that comes with an important responsibility is supported by a seemingly insignificant detail that most people fail to acknowledge or comprehend.
But you wouldn't understand
The singer believes that the listener lacks the knowledge, experience or empathy required to grasp the complexity and gravity of the situation.
Old Soul
The singer addresses someone with an ancient, wise or jaded spirit, as a sign of respect, recognition or nostalgia.
I don't know if you know
The artist acknowledges their uncertainty about the listener's awareness or insight, perhaps due to their own doubts or fears.
Or didn't show
The artist suggests that the listener either kept their thoughts or feelings hidden, or failed to demonstrate any interest or concern, making it hard to gauge their true response.
Everything comes apart if you find the strand
The tenuous balance or harmony that holds things together can be irreparably disrupted if the key element that supports it is revealed, exposed or removed.
All it takes is a hand
The singer implies that a small, accidental or intentional intervention can trigger a cascade of events that leads to chaos, destruction or transformation.

Hi org malaysia!
Korang biasa dgr lagu m.nasir tak? Korang faham ke semua lagu2 dia? Padahal lagu2 dia semua guna bahasa melayu. Cer pi dgr balik lagu Tanya Sama Hud-Hud. Tengok lirik dia. Kalau takde org tlg interpret lagu tu, mesti ramai org tak paham the message behind the song.
Tu baru 1 cth lagu m.nasir yg ramai org tak paham eventho guna bahasa melayu pun...
Korang rasa lagu ni takde message ke?
Teori konspirasi? Wallahualam...
@faradibahsudari4696
@@mrplategrant6464 sis takdela taksub sgt dgn conspiracy theory ni tapi yg pastinya, dajjal mmg wujud. Yg tu bukan konspirasi. Yg tu fakta.
Cuma MAYBE, maybe, tafsiran keywords dlm lagu yg dah 10 tahun ni:
the strand: DNA strand
All it takes is a hand: illuminati selalu digelar "the hidden hands" sbb diorang buat onar, pastu sembunyi tangan.
Kalau betul2 nak dgr lagu illuminati, sila google >> madonna illuminati song. Tajuk lagu tu pun mmg 'Illuminati'.
Ok yg penting skrg, jom bertaubat sblm terlambat. Peace...

Neon Indian is making a comeback in my life hard rn. Thanks for all of the great tunes and feels!
@homegrowntwinkie
I really wish I could encapsulate a time period, a feeling, a special Era of life so that all of the people in the world could experience it exactly the same way, exactly the same feelings, exactly the same....
Until then I have neon Indian to throw me back to that time. And I miss that time. So much. Been a fan for 12yrs now, saw neon Indian and met Alan Palomo about 10yrs ago, I wish I could go back. Life was so much easier then.
