From the recording REBIRTH
"Hideaway" is the bands' magical new collaboration with well-known South African singer-songwriter Nicola Mcleod, and damn...what a song this is!
Headfury delivers another epic, super catchy melodic rock anthem, following hot on the heels of their recent #1 smash hit "Glimmer". Nicola's angelic voice is the perfect addition to the song, and the natural melodic interplay between her and vocalist Gideon Kretschmer creates an instantly engaging listening experience, delivering an emo pop-rock vibe that is somewhat reminiscent of early Paramore..not a bad thing.
Lyrically, 'Hideaway' tells the story of a creative spirit that takes a much needed escape from life's relentless rat race - hiding away for a moment to reflect on all the missing pieces, the hidden fears and disappointments; and most importantly finding renewed hope and conviction to take a different path towards a happier future.
Lyrics
(Save your strength, you need to run)
Feel the trees, autumn leaves
they’re all falling down here
I don’t like it (like it)
Run the hills
feel the chills
I’m fighting the rain here
trying to keep from drowning
Save your worth
(soon you will) need it all
(to fight of a) heart attack
(no way to) push it back
(I try to) win it all
(guess I’m not) good enough
destined to learn
I will find the right way
I cannot dream, cannot breathe
for somebody else here
I am hiding (hiding, hiding)
In our hearts we’re all creators
can’t deny what we are made of
Feel the path
under feet
I’m trying to run here
Cannot shake it (shake it)
Take me back to the road
where it all started
I will choose the right way
Save your strength
(soon you will) drift again
(into the) storm you left
(sinking to) new depths
(I try to) find a home
(where I can) grow alone
I’m overboard
I can’t find the right way
I cannot dream, cannot breathe
for somebody else here
I am hiding (hiding, hiding)
In our hearts we’re all creators
can’t deny what we are made of
Dig deeper
you bury yourself again
Keep sinking
It keeps me hidden
I cannot dream, cannot breathe
for somebody else here
I am hiding (hiding)
I cannot dream, cannot breathe
for somebody else here
I am hiding (hiding, hiding)
In our hearts we’re all creators
can’t deny what we are made of
(Save your strength, you need to run)
