Another one of my favorites. Eddie is such an amazing writer. I relate to this song probably more than any other.

    I absolutely love this song. It is my favorite off Yield. I think it just speaks of where he was at the time, lyric wise. It's rock and soft at the same time. Just a great song!
    "I'd rather be with an animal." "Those that can be trusted can change their mind." "The in between is mine." "If I don't lose control, explore and not explode, a preternatural other plane with the power to maintain." "Yeh this is living." "Life is what you make it."

    I agree, it's definately the best song off of Yield. This past fall was my last marching band season because I will graduate from high school in May, and when I walked off the field, we have an old saying in band that after your last performance, you need to "lay your heart on the field," and that's what I did. And I remember crying so much and just have all the old memories of band running through my head, and me just being all alone. When I got on the bus to go home I listened to "In Hiding" and what a relief!! I was so able to relate!!! Wow, this song is so amazing.

    yeah ...
    i can't hear this song anymore without seeing eddie's face on SVT. hehe

    and the line "i swallow the truth to keep from lying"
    it's really good ....
    and the "biting" he sings with his teeth really ...

    another thing i just like about this song on SVT, is what eddie say about the riff he listen "all the time" ... and like people just brought him songs ... and he has to do lyrics ...

    much love for this awesome song.

    but i have another interepretation of the "biting" line.
    i think it's "i swallow my fist just to keep from fighting."

    One of my favourites songs of PJ, surely in the top 10...The music, so powerful and with details at the same time...
    the voice, touching the f*ckin sky in the chorus...your skin will shake...
    and the lyrics, incredible...we all need to hide sometime...

    Until next time

    that's interesting. it's a good line. maybe that's what he says sometimes.

    the first song to really grab me off yield (oh and DTE of course) but i feel it is up there with immortality as one of their most perfect songs, in all ways, lyrics, music, etc...

    just wish they'd play it more!

    Yes, he has said "I swallowed my fist just to keep from fighting" before. :) I have so many bootlegs of this song now, I can't remember which one it's on.

    have they played it recently live? love that song. somehow seems to have disappeared behind the other favs off of yield, evolution, wishlist, faithful, given to fly. shit they should just play a tour of no code and yield.

    I hope that In Hiding, Hold On, and Light Years get played a lot during their next tour.
