Hand In Hand
Beatsteaks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She comes in a cloud but she don't know
She walks in a haze
Do we get up before it ever gets too late
Hand in hand we walk on down
The alley and our common ground
We walk in a haze
Do we pass out before we ever know it's on?
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
(Ahu!)
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
She follows me down to where I go
Not pulling a chain, not feeling low
Don't wake me up, I can't relate to any other song today
Hand in hand we walk along
The alley and our common ground
I walk in a haze, why should I care?
I'm waiting out the days go anywhere
Oh
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
The lyrics to Beatsteaks's song Hand In Hand describe a relationship where the singer is being followed by a girl who is in a bit of a fog, unsure of what she wants. They walk together hand in hand through the alleyways, both in a daze. The singer questions whether they will wake up before it is too late and if they are simply passing out before they even realize it is all over. However, he feels better with his hands tied and doesn't mind being led by this girl who is clueless because he doesn't want to take control of his life. He is waiting for something to happen, and for now, he is content to walk with her.
The song seems to be about feeling lost or stuck. The singer is resigned to the fact that he may never find his way or become "wise." He finds comfort in not taking responsibility for his own life and in being tied up because he can't make any decisions. This theme of apathy is further reinforced by the repetition of the line "She ain't never gonna get wise" throughout the song.
In conclusion, Hand In Hand by Beatsteaks is a song about being lost, being content with being lost, and feeling a false sense of security in that lost state. The singer knows that he could be doing something about it, but for now, he is happy to walk hand in hand with this girl who is just as lost as he is.

She follows me down to where I go
She accompanies me on my journey
She comes in a cloud but she don't know
She is unsure of her presence and purpose
She walks in a haze
She is unsure of her surroundings
Do we get up before it ever gets too late
Do we take action before it's too late?
Hand in hand we walk on down
We journey together towards our destination
The alley and our common ground
We share common experiences
We walk in a haze
We are uncertain about our journey
Do we pass out before we ever know it's on?
Do we give up before reaching our goal?
She ain't never gonna get wise
She won't gain understanding
And I feel better with my hands tied
I feel more comfortable with a lack of control
Not pulling a chain, not feeling low
Not being controlled or emotionally exhausted
Don't wake me up, I can't relate to any other song today
I can't connect to any other experiences or emotions today
I walk in a haze, why should I care?
I am uncertain about my journey and questioning my emotions
I'm waiting out the days go anywhere
I am biding my time, waiting for an opportunity

She comes in a cloud but she don't know
She walks in a haze
Do we get up
Before it ever gets too late
Hand in hand we walk on down
The alley and our common ground
We walk in a haze
Do we pass out
Before we ever know it's on
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
She follows me down to where I go
Not pulling a chain not feeling low
Don't wake me up
I can't relate
To any other song today
Hand in hand we walk along
The alley and our common ground
I walk in a haze
Why should I care
I'm waiting out the days go anywhere
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
She ain't never gonna get wise
And I feel better with my hands tied

Der erste Song der Beatsteaks, den ich aktiv wahrgenommen hab. Kein Wunder, er wurde damals ja auch auf allen Musiksendern hoch und runter gespielt. Kann mich noch erinnern wie überrascht ich war, als ich erfuhr ,dass es eine deutsche Band ist.
@paddyd.7137
Nicht nur EINE deutsche Band.
DIE Band aus Deutschland!
Wundert mich immer noch, dass Beatsteaks keinen Weltruhm erfahren.
