Hide

FKA Twigs

Space
The only thing I ever knew

Place
With the time I know I'll have to choose, no

Stay beneath the ground
Hide away from you
I sink into the crowd
If it meant that I'd escape your eye

Hate
The only thing I give to you
Now

Face me
If you think you can take another route
Out

I let my sight be slayed
If it meant that I could form a view

I found another way
To caress my day

    General CommentCommitting oneself to being distance, so much so, that it is just easier to hide away than to accept someone's caring. The hate, in my opinion, is a front; saving face.

    "Face me, if you think you can take another route out" is in essence predicting the person's behaviour, and challenging them to be different. "Face me" is very confrontational, as if challenging someone's bluff.

    General CommentPossible correction:

    I let myself be saved
    if it meant that I'd be void of you

    The only thing I have for you

    Laced
    With the time I know I'll have to choose

    Stay beneath the ground
    Hide away from you
    I'd sink into the crowd
    If it meant that I'd escape your eye

    Hate
    The only thing I give to you
    Now

    Face me
    If you think you can take another route
    Out

    I'd let my sight be slayed
    If it meant that I'd be void of you

    I found another way
    To caress my day
