"Hideout" is an indie rock song about disillusion and awareness. It is a song that reflects on people and our desperate need to forgive ourselves for being stuck, afraid and unspontaneous towards life and its events. 

In this new song, Smile starts to focus on disorientation. People tend to be scared in this new world we have to rebuild, and we have to rely on others and be more open. Surviving is the first issue. Then, be happy and free.
