Petit biscuit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night i met this girl
you know at the bar
we have ah, this look you
know the look you only see in movies
and everything was running smoothly
until she stopped
and stared at my hands and said
these are the most beautiful hands i've seen in a while
and then she became very passionate about them

its funny when you stop and think about all the things you could do with your hands

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Petit Biscuit's song Alone tell a story of meeting someone special at a bar. The singer meets a girl who gives him a look that he only thought existed in movies. They hit it off immediately, and everything is going smoothly until the girl stops and stares at his hands. She becomes passionate about them, saying that they are the most beautiful hands she has seen in a while. This statement makes the singer ponder all the things he could do with his hands.


The lyrics, although seemingly simplistic, hold a deeper meaning about the power of physical touch and attraction. The singer's hands are praised for their beauty, reflecting how physical attributes can spark attraction between two people, even if they have just met. The lyrics are relatable, as they capture the feeling of intense attraction and chemistry that can happen when meeting someone new. Alone's lyrics suggest that hands can represent a person's abilities and skills, such as an artist’s or musician’s hands, and can be a unique characteristic that attracts others.

I wish I had known of this video to show it to my Art teacher when she kept asking why I drew hands so much. The entire meaning, structure and movement of them is incredibly fascinating to draw

@sana-kz9mz

Fors Manus honestly i wish i could get in the habit of drawing hands 😂 i always avoid them but i do agree the structure and vibe from hands is especially calming and almost serene.

@moonlightpastelgacha9355
