Get Away
H.E.D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why should I stick around when no one really cares?
Why should I stick around? I hate the walls around me
Why should I stick around? It's just like I'm not there
I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free
Why should I stick around? I know I don't belong here
Why should I stick around? It'll never be the same
Why should I stick around? Nothing ever grows here
Why should I stick around? I'm tired of this game
I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
Is kissing me goodbye
I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away from me
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me
Why should I stick around when someone might get hurt?
Why should I stick around when everything is shit? Oh
Why should I stick around when no one understands me?
Why should I stick around when, oh
(I know there's something better for me)
I wish that I could fly
Why do I even try?
When everything I've ever known
Is kissing me goodbye
I wish that I could fly
I'd take you there with me
Across the sky, beneath the veil
We all want to be free
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away from me
Just get away, get away, get away, get away
Get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me
The song "Get Away" by H.E.D features a repetitive chorus that emphasizes the need for someone to leave their life and their heart. The lyrics suggest a relationship that has gone sour and the need to separate from the other person. The chorus speaks to the idea of leaving someone behind and moving on with life without them. The verse suggests that physical intimacy was one of the reasons for the relationship but the emotions of love are no longer present. The song moves between these two themes with the chorus as a constant reminder that the relationship needs to end.
The verses of the song make use of sexual innuendo, with lines like "We'll do everything 'Cause I'm your yang and you're my ying," and "If you sleep with me you'll be A slave of ecstasy." These lines suggest that the attraction between these two people may have been purely physical and not based on actual love or emotional attachment. In fact, the main message of the song seems to be one of letting go of someone who was never there in a meaningful way to begin with.
In conclusion, "Get Away" by H.E.D is a song about the need to let go of a relationship that has lost its emotional substance. The lyrics rely heavily on sexual innuendo and physical attraction, suggesting that the relationship was more lust than love. Throughout the song, the chorus urges the other person to leave and exit the singer's life.

We'll go so deep until we drown
We'll have sex until we can't anymore

Make you feel like dynamite
Sex with me will be explosive
Take me low - fly me high
We can reach heights of pleasure
There's no limit but the sky
We can do anything together
I don't care what you might do
I don't care about your actions
When I fall for you
When I'm attracted to you
Ohhh-Ohhh

I don't need your love anymore
I don't need love from you anymore
Get away, and take the back door
Leave through the easiest exit
Get away
Leave me alone
