Hidden, Hidden Lyrics

See, the way I feel
Is hidden, hidden
The way I feel
It's time
If you'd reveal
What's hidden, hidden
Is it time?

What have I missed? Make me a list
I can try, but you resist
Stir my soul, dig me a hole
I can't move what you control

Still, I'm afraid to hear it
It's hidden, hidden
I'm afraid to hear it

I feel fine, sevens and nines
You can offer, I'll decline
Drop my guard, heavy and hard
I will treasure what you discard
Hit me in the head, send me to bed
I forgot what you just said
Make my day, send me away
Send me away, send me away

Yes, we ought to talk about it
What I need to say is
What I mean to say is
I don't want to talk about it
Though I can see the future
I prefer to close my eyes

Show me a sign, boggle my mind
Water burns as I decide
Teardrop-stained, pleasure and pain
You are different, I'm the same

I fear
That it could destroy me
If you reveal
What's hidden, hidden

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This seems like another song about divorce. The anger is very appearent. It reminds me a lot of my parents divorce: "I'm not telling him nothing because he'll throw it back in my face later", and vice versa, all the while scheming to see what they can use against their partner in the next argument. Very ugly indeed. Another indication of the volitility expressed in "River on Fire". It's actually painful to listen to this song because it conjures up so many memories of the emotional brutality of divorce.
