Nine Lies Lyrics

V1.
Cant say that you'l never let go
of the things you've got in front of you.
Lets break from the rhythm of the past
If you know what is good for you.
They say that you only get one,
So why you waste it like a fool?
Like a fool....

Chorus.
Take me away from this land
Ah take me away from this plan
Cause I feel,
Much too tired to be strong.
Take me away from this land
Take me away from this plan
Cause I feel,
Much too tired to be strong.

V2.
Cant say that you'l never let go
of the things you've got in front of you.
Lets break from the rhythm of the past
If you know what is good for you.
They say that you only get one,
So why you waste it like a fool?
Like a fool....

Step one gotta shake you little body
and work out what you have to do
Part two cant see or taste the fear that's
coming after you.
Scene three is the action of the crime,
Your doing time is threw for you..
Threw for you!

Chorus.
Take me away from this land
Take me away from this plan
Cause I feel,
Much too tired to be strong.
Take me away from this land
Take me away from this plan
Cause I feel,
Much too tired to go on.

Mid 8.
I'm going under....you
Take Me Away....
Take Me Away...
I'm Going under.
you.......





Chorus X 2

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Nine Lies's song "Take Me Away" suggest a desire to let go of the things that are holding one back and to break free from the past. The lyrics use the image of a rhythm to describe the pattern of behavior that has been established and that should be broken away from. The chorus is centered around the repetition of the phrase "Take me away from this land, take me away from this plan," which can be interpreted as a plea to escape from the current circumstances that are causing exhaustion and weakness. The song seems to offer a message of empowerment, urging the listener to take control of their life and to make choices that will lead to a better sense of well-being.


The second verse introduces a three-step plan for creating change. Step one is to "shake your little body" and determine what needs to be done, step two is to ignore any fears that may arise, and step three is to take action and move forward. The reference to "doing time" suggests that the singer has been caught up in something that has held them back, but now they're ready to put that behind them and move on.
