6HOST Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I like it better outside
I do not care
You should try keepin' your mouth shut
I don't need your output
You were not there
Who of all knows it more than I do?
We are not friends
Hot flash, one thing that I'm not past
Living like an outcast
I don't pretend
You were never one for picking fights
I know I am
I was never one for staying here
I know I can't
I need a break from you
I can't escape from you
Why?
Running, my feet hurt
Now I think it's easier to hide
Hide
Hide
Hide
Hide
Hide
Hide
People used to use me as a lifeline
I would spend a lifetime
Keeping you safe
Now it's hard to keep my fuckin' phone charged
How'd I make it this far?
Can't pick up the pace
That's the point of having your own back, see
You don't need to ask me
You'll be just fine
Everything is okay and you're happy
I am done unmasking
I don't have time

The lyrics of 6HOST's song "Hide" suggest a feeling of detachment and a need for distance from someone in their life. The singer is comfortable outside their house and perhaps finds refuge in nature or being alone. The following lines, "I do not care, You should try keeping your mouth shut, I don't need your output, You were not there," suggest there may have been some criticism or judgment from this person the singer is distancing themselves from. The singer makes it clear they are not similar to this person and makes a point to say they are not friends.
The chorus repetition of "Hide" emphasizes the singer's desire to disappear or distance themselves even further. The next line, "People used to use me as a lifeline," suggests that this person was once a support system for others but now needs that support themselves, which they may not be getting from the person they are distancing themselves from. The explanation that "Now it's hard to keep my fuckin' phone charged, How'd I make it this far, Can't pick up the pace," demonstrates the singer's current difficulties and struggles. The last few lines explain how having one's back is important, and the singer is done unmasking, indicating that they are done with trying to please or cater to this person's needs or opinions.
