Hands
Forever Lesbians Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been thinking way too much about all of this dumb stuff
It's true for all the people
inside there's beautiful and evil things

Have you been feeling troubled?
Minds are so easily muddled
You said something I don't understand
You constructed it with your own hands

I won't let it fade away
This feeling that's got me so great




Sent from some strange place that I can't see
Is this more funny to you or to me?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Forever Lesbians' song "Hands" explore the concept of self-reflection and the duality of human nature. The opening lines suggest that the singer has been overthinking trivial things, indicating a sense of being overwhelmed by personal struggles. The next line, "It's true for all the people," suggests that these experiences are universal, and everyone faces the same inner conflicts. The lyrics go on to discuss the dual nature of the human psyche - there is both beauty and evil within us all.


The chorus is a conversation between two people. One of them seems confused or troubled by something the other said, and they ask for clarification. The line "You constructed it with your own hands" suggests that the person being spoken to created the problem for themselves. The singer acknowledges that minds can be easily muddled, implying that there may be a simple explanation for their friend's confusion, but it may not be evident without some digging.


The final verse hints at a mystical element, with the singer mentioning a feeling that comes from a strange place they can't see. This could be interpreted as an intuition or sixth sense guiding the singer, but it's not clear whether this is a positive or negative force. The final question, "Is this more funny to you or to me?" could be a sarcastic way of coping with the confusion by trying to find humor in the situation.
