Take Me Away
Avril Lavigne/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I cannot find a way
To describe it
It's there
Inside

All I do is hide
I wish
That it
Would just go away

What would
You do?
You do?
If you knew
What would you do?

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

I feel
Like I
Am alone
All by

Myself
I need to get around this
My words
Are cold

I don't want them to hurt you
If I
Show you
I don't think you'd understand
'Cause no one understands

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

I'm going nowhere
On and on and
I'm getting nowhere
On and on and
Take me away

I'm going nowhere
On and on and
Up and on and
Up and on

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

Take me away




Break me away
Take me away

All the pain she experienced, all the thoughts that led back to the same person, the unsaid things, it all adds to the confusion that she feels, and she is unable to handle it anymore. She begs someone to come and take her away from it all.


The lyrics are evocative and capture the feelings of anxiety, confusion, and the need for escape.

En ikinä halunnut

Juosta karkuun sinulta

Minusta tuntui tosi pahalta

Mutta se oli, mitä tein

 

En ikinä halunnut myöskään

En kuullut sinulta

Etkä ollut siellä minua varten

Joten, se oli mitä tapahtui

 

Enkä ole pahoillani

Koska olimme tylsiä

En sivuuta mitään... mitään

 

On vain niin paljon kuin voin ottaa

Ennen kuin alan epäillä sitä

On vain niin paljon kuin voin antaa

Sinun kannattaisi miettiä sitä

Yeah, sinun kannattaisi miettiä sitä

 

On aika minun saada hupini

Ei ole konsteja, se on tehty

Ota minut ehdoitta

Ja se on mitä teen

 

En tule koskaan ymmärtämään

Mistä olit tulossa?

Ja minne menit?

Et ollut siellä minua varten

 

Enkä ole pahoillani

Koska olimme tylsiä

En sivuuta mitään... mitään

 

On vain niin paljon kuin voin ottaa

Ennen kuin alan epäillä sitä

On vain niin paljon kuin voin antaa

Sinun kannattaisi miettiä sitä

 

On vain niin paljon kuin me voimme tehdä

Voimmeko tehdä ilman sitä?

On vain niin paljon kuin voit sanoa

Unohditko sen?

Unohditko sen?

 

En koskaan halunnut

Juosta karkuun sinulta

Minusta tuntui tosi pahalta

Mutta se on, mitä tein

 

Enkä ole pahoillani

Koska olimme tylsiä

En sivuuta mitään... mitään

 

On vain niin paljon kuin voin ottaa

Ennen kuin alan epäillä sitä

On vain niin paljon kuin voin antaa

Sinun kannattaisi miettiä sitä

 

On vain niin paljon kuin me voimme tehdä

Voimmeko tehdä ilman sitä?

On vain niin paljon kuin voit sanoa

Unohditko sen?

Unohditko sen?

 

En koskaan halunnut

Juosta karkuun sinulta

Minusta tuntui tosi pahalta

Mutta se on, mitä tein

Just when I think I've heard all of her songs I find one I haven't heard. Anyone else notice that she has A LOT of songs? I bet she's made hundreds of songs that we don't even know about.

Marcela Silva

Muitos estão pensando que esse som é de 2002, estão equivocados. Esta música é de 2010 ela lançou quando estva apenas se dedicando á sua linha de roupas e como os fãs estavam reclamando que não havia nada de novo, Avril então preparou esta linda canção para nós fãs, porém, parece que entrou em nenhum albúm. E obrigada por postarem, estava preocurando essa música há 2 anos rs.

SubZero302

Sei que o seu comentário faz 10 anos, mas a Avril não lançou esta música, ela foi vazada

Maytheforce Bewithu

she has a lot of songs that its unreleased but all those song is amazing anyway

Luke Morosini

Wish they would all get released or leaked somehow.

MegasXLR

As someone already said it's like a crossover between Under My Skin and The Best Damn Thing. Sounds nice :)

aguyinlove

I agree. The voice is still from UMS era, but the sound tends to be very TBDT like. It sounds unfinished but still it's nice

Eric Frye

@aguyinlove it's funny how her voice changes in every era XD

107 Ashraful Masum

She is the vocal magician who can play with her voice...before releasing every album she changed her vocal...check her recent collaboration Wings Clipped and Baby It's Cold Outside....different than others era

Raven Bellaire

This isn't a bad song :/ This AMAZING!
