Hide and Seek.

by Imogen Heap
Where are we? What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just began to fall
Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling
Spin me around again and rub my eyes
This can't be happening
When busy streets a mess with people would stop to
Hold their heads heavy

Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines?
All those years they were here first

Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this
Still alive

Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines?
Oh, you won't catch me around here
Blood and tears they were here first

Mm... what you say
Oh that you only meant well, well of course you did
Mm... what you say
Mm... that it's all for the best, of course it is
Mm... what you say
That IT'S JUST what we need, you decided this
Mm... what you say
What did she say?

Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
Speak no feeling no i don't believe you
You don't care a bit you don't care a bit
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
Speak no feeling no i don't believe you
You don't care a bit you don't care a bit

You don't care a bit
You don't care a bit
You don't care a bit
You don't care a bit
You don't care a bit

Hide and Seek premiered on the season finale of theOC's season2:
A minimalistic song with almost no instruments.
A sad song with only the digitalised vocals of Imogen Heap.
A meaningful number with no specific explicit meaning.
A beautiful song about what you want it to mean to you;
about being hurt, about betrayal, about leaving and being left...

I should mention that this will stay on my favorites for a long time...
