I'm not hiding,
I'm just buying some time for us to find the back door
We will come out when it's safe for us
Emery-Playing With Fire
This comes from one of my favorite songs ever of anything that has ever been. I'll bet that made sense to you.
There is a hidden emotion in this line. That emotion is fear. The singer is afraid of what will come of his current situation; but tries to pretend that he is simply rationalizing. He is afraid to follow what his gut tells him, what his heart tells him.
Structurally it almost seems as a simple statement. This flows as a regular sentence. It's a simple rationalization to cover up what he really wants to say. I like how that sounds though, it sounds like a real person; which is helpful for this type of music. This allows the listener to relate to the song.
Who's hiding? I am just letting opportunity pass me by. There's no need for chancing this.
