Hide and Seek
Wolfbrigade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
World on hold
No reaction made
Worldpolice in control
Still they get to play their game
Hide and seek
Weapons of mass destruction
Create your terrorists
Bloodspill for oil
Their dirty dollars
Try to keep the truth untold
Still they get to play their game
Hide and seek
Weapons of mass destruction
Suck the earth dry then soak in with blood
Pass the blame on something else
Cover up what's corrupt
Still they get to play their game
Hide and seek
Weapons of mass destruction
The song "Hide and Seek" by Wolfbrigade is a powerful statement against the violence and corruption of those in power. The song begins by describing a state of "conscious killing" where the world stands still and no one reacts to the injustice and atrocities being committed by the "Worldpolice in control". The lyrics go on to describe the creation of "terrorists" and the use of "weapons of mass destruction" in a never-ending game of "hide and seek" played by those in power. The song also accuses those in power of engaging in wars for oil and covering up their corrupt actions.
At its core, "Hide and Seek" is a scathing critique of the actions of governments and leaders who prioritize their own interests over the well-being of their citizens and the world at large. The song highlights the hypocrisy of those who claim to be working for peace and justice while engaging in violence and deception. The repeated refrain of "Still they get to play their game" underscores the sense of powerlessness that many people feel in the face of such corruption and injustice.
