Whats the meaning of the song “hide and seek”?
My personal opinion is that you aren’t supposed to know the meaning to this song. Imogen Heap, when asked about the meaning, didn’t explain it for a reason. This is a beautiful song that means something different to everyone who hears it. Some people listen and hear 9/11. Others listen and hear a divorce, or a child moving to a new place, or the tragedy of the Holocaust. Some hear the death of a loved one. Some people even believe that there isn’t a meaning, that the lyrics are just a collection of words meant to sound like poetry, and that they have no meaning. This song is meant to do that. Your question is not a question worth asking, because you will get so many different answers that all make sense, and that will only leave you wondering which is correct. My advice to you is to just let it be. This song means whatever you want it to mean; it speaks to people on a personal level. It is meant for people to interpret for themselves. And that is the way music should be.
