Exploring themes of loss and acceptance, this song delves into the emotional complexity of letting go. It conveys the pain of being left behind and the realization that clinging to someone who is drifting away is futile. The lyrics express a universal longing for everlasting connection, juxtaposed with the recognition that sometimes separation is inevitable. The repeated notion of "open hands" symbolizes both the act of offering and the difficulty in holding onto something intangible. Ultimately, the song implies that while it is challenging to accept farewells, there is a quiet strength in releasing and trusting the journey ahead.
Open Hands
Lyrics
Nobody wants to be the only one that's left standing
Nobody wants to be the only one to understand
And now I'm seeing the way that you're leaving
Without me
Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound, go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway
Everybody wants the one to make them live forever
And nobody wants to be the only one to say they can't
And now I'm seeing the way that you're leaving
Without me
Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound, go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway, anyway, anyway
Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound, go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Open hands are hard to hold on to anyway
Anyway, anyway, anyway
