Hideaway
Rock Kills Kid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't mean you mean it
Run away to find a home
Happy now, but you don't see it
Run away because
You're all alone
And you'll never know
And you'll never see
What might happen
And you'll never know
What could have been
And you'll never see
What might happen
Dead inside
You wait for something
Innocence, lost so long ago
No one cares, so why should you?
Run away because
You're all alone
And you'll never know
What could have been
And you'll never see
What might happen
And you'll never know
What could have been
And you'll never see
What might...
Because you say it
Don't mean you mean it
Run away to find a home
Now I'll let you in
Yeah, I'll let you in
Yeah...
And you'll never know
What could have been
And you'll never see
What might happen
And you'll never know
What could have been
And you'll never see
What might happen
And you'll never know...
And you'll never know...
The lyrics of "Hideaway" by Rock Kills Kid are about someone who is feeling lost and alone, and who is running away from their problems in search of a place to call home. The lyrics suggest that this person has been hurt before, perhaps by people who promised them things they could not deliver. This has caused them to become dead inside, and they are now waiting for something to happen to restore their faith in humanity.
The lyrics also suggest that this person is afraid of what could have been, and what might happen in the future. They have become so used to disappointment and failure that they have given up hope of ever finding happiness or fulfillment. However, there is a glimmer of hope in the final verse of the song, when the singer invites this person to come in and be a part of their life. This suggests that while life may be difficult, it is still possible to find happiness and connection with others.
