Someone Else’s Hands
Letra
[Verse 1]
I wake up thinking I’m free
Every thought belongs to me
I choose the words, I choose the way
At least that’s what the voices say
A little whisper in my ear
Tells me what to love and fear
I never saw the strings above
I only felt the gentle pull
[Pre-Chorus]
One step forward
Two steps back
Something keeps me on the track
I look up
And now
I understand
[Chorus]
Pull the strings, pull the strings
Make me dance, make me dance
Pull the strings, pull the strings
I’m in someone else’s hands
Round and round, round and round
Make me dance, make me dance
Pull the strings, pull the strings
I’m in someone else’s hands
[Post-Chorus]
Someone else’s hands
Someone else’s hands
I’m dancing, dancing
In someone else’s hands
[Verse 2]
A thousand faces, same reply
A thousand mouths repeat the lie
They march together, side by side
And call the rhythm their own mind
Invisible strings above our heads
Silent masters guide our steps
Every move, a hidden hand
We're just puppets in their plans
[Pre-Chorus]
One step forward
Two steps back
Everybody on the track
But now I see
What I could never see
[Chorus]
Pull the strings, pull the strings
Make me dance, make me dance
Pull the strings, pull the strings
I’m in someone else’s hands
Round and round, round and round
Make me dance, make me dance
Pull the strings, pull the strings
I’m in someone else’s hands
[Post-Chorus]
Someone else’s hands
Someone else’s hands
I’m dancing, dancing
In someone else’s hands
[Bridge — Dramatic Breakdown]
There’s something on my wrist
Something tied around my feet
Something pulling at my heart
Something speaking when I speak
These are not my hands
These are not my words
This is not my fear
Cut the strings
Cut the strings
CUT THE STRINGS!
[Explosive Instrumental Synth Drop]
[Final Chorus — Powerful and Triumphant]
Cut the strings, cut the strings
I won’t dance, I won’t dance
Cut the strings, cut the strings
My life is in my hands
No more round and round and round
I won’t dance, I won’t dance
Cut the strings, cut the strings
My life is in my hands
[Final Post-Chorus]
In my hands
In my hands
I’m finally, finally
In my own hands
[Outro — Minimal Synths, Whispered Female Vocal]
Pull the strings...
Nothing moves
Pull the strings...
Nothing moves
You lost your puppet
I found myself.
Sobre a música
Em “Someone Else’s Hands”, Fabeon explora a manipulação humana e os fios invisíveis que influenciam nossos pensamentos, comportamentos e decisões.
Com uma sonoridade eletrônica intensa, que combina a energia do Electro House, elementos do Progressive House e influências do Trance, a música utiliza a metáfora das marionetes para refletir sobre controle, consciência e liberdade.
O refrão hipnótico, marcado por “Pull the strings”, transforma-se em um poderoso “Cut the strings”, simbolizando o despertar e a conquista da autonomia.
No videoclipe, Ellie Underwood protagoniza essa jornada em um universo inspirado nas histórias em quadrinhos, onde romper os fios significa recuperar o controle da própria vida.
Mais do que uma música para dançar, é um convite para questionar quem realmente conduz nossos passos.
You lost your puppet. I found myself.
