Don't Hide
Faker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on
You were struck at a very young age, by the light
In a sky full of rage you were sure
You had never been told what was right
Don't hide, don't hide
Your love away
Go on, get away
I was robbed like never before you were hit
By the four to the floor the guitar
It was freaking you out so I left
With a head full of doubt
Don't hide, don't hide
Your love away
Please, I've been arrested by this scene
And then my crime was, I was there when you got beat
Your life in debt owes less than when you saved yourself, you'll see
And if it all begins, when can you begin with me?
Hey, don't hide, no, don't hide
Your love away
Go on, get away
Aw, you took a back seat
And you got no one to dance with
And all your questions
They just leave me with answers
And so imagine my surprise
When you slept in my disguise
And I said hey kid
Don't call me a genius
And don't hide, don't hide
Your love away
Please, I've been arrested by this scene
And in your heart
Knew I was there while you got beat
A life in debt owes less than when I hid myself, you'll see
And if it all begins, when do you begin with me?
And, hey, don't hide, no, no, no
Don't hide your love away
Please, I've been arrested by this scene
And in your heart
Knew I was there while you got beat
A life in debt owes less than when I hid myself, you'll see
And if it all begins, when do we begin?
When can you begin with me?
Don't hide, ha, no, don't hide
Please, don't hide, no, don't hide
Your love away
The lyrics in Faker's song Don't Hide encourages listeners to not hide their feelings and emotions away. The song opens with a repetitive chanting of "Go on, go on" which sets the tone for the rest of the song. The first verse talks about the singer's love for music and how it has been with him since he was very young. He talks about being struck by the light in a sky full of rage and not being taught what was right or what he needed to know. The song then goes on to talk about how the singer was robbed of something very dear and left with a head full of doubt. The chorus then repeats multiple times, encouraging listeners to not hide their love away and to go on and get away from their fears.
The second part of the song goes on to talk about the singer's experience of being arrested by the scene around him. He talks about his crime being that he was there when someone he loved got beat. He then goes on to say that a life in debt owes less than when he hid himself away. The final chorus then builds up the energy of the song, with the singer urging the listener to not hide their love away and to begin afresh with him.
Overall, the lyrics of Don't Hide are very introspective and encourage listeners to confront and express their emotions instead of hiding them away. The song is about accepting oneself and not being afraid to show one's true self to the world.
Line by Line Meaning
Go on, go on, go on, go on

You were struck at a very young age, by the light

Or what you needed to know

Don't hide, don't hide
Your love away

I was robbed like never before you were hit
By the four to the floor the guitar
It was freaking you out so I left
With a head full of doubt
I was personally affected by the music and felt like I was being robbed of control. It impacted you as well, but you didn't know how to deal with it, leaving you feeling confused and unsure.
Please, I've been arrested by this scene
And then my crime was, I was there when you got beat
Your life in debt owes less than when you saved yourself, you'll see
And if it all begins, when can you begin with me?
I feel trapped by the situation and my own involvement in it, as if I'm culpable for your struggles. But the fact is that your personal growth is more significant than any debts or obligations, and our partnership could be mutually beneficial if we begin together.
Aw, you took a back seat
And you got no one to dance with
And all your questions
They just leave me with answers
You've shied away from taking a prominent role in things, so you now have no opportunities for involvement with others. Additionally, I have all the answers to your questions, but it seems like you're not asking the right ones to be truly engaged.
And so imagine my surprise
When you slept in my disguise
And I said hey kid
Don't call me a genius
I was shocked when you embraced a version of myself that I was projecting, and had to remind you that I'm not any kind of exceptionally intelligent or creative individual.
Please, I've been arrested by this scene
And in your heart
Knew I was there while you got beat
A life in debt owes less than when I hid myself, you'll see
And if it all begins, when do you begin with me?
I'm feeling trapped or stuck in the music industry, and I know you're aware of my presence during your difficult experiences. I'm acknowledging that it's better to be personally invested and engaged, rather than avoiding things out of fear or anxiety.
Don't hide, ha, no, don't hide
Please, don't hide, no, don't hide
Your love away
Repeated encouragement to be open and expressive about interests and passions, rather than keeping them secret or hidden from the world.
