Nothing to Hide is the second and final studio album by In My Eyes. It was released in 2000 by Revelation Records. Showing a somewhat more developed style than that on their first album (The Difference Between), this album incorporated more melodic elements, along with some experimentation (e.g. the breakdown on track 8, "On My Side"), a characteristic rare in youth crew hardcore. Track 9, "What's Wrong With Me?", is a cover of the legendary Washington DC hardcore punk band The Faith which originally appeared on the Void/Faith split 12".
