Take Me Away
Sound Tesselated Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm looking around with questioning eyes,
Searching for answeres, but there are just lies,
That try to decive, that try to fool,
That try to wedge me in a role.

Looking out of the window, I see what I've seen
For all my life. The places I've been,
Where I have had a sheltered live,
But there is something missing.

Take me away from home!
You took my heart, I have no choice.
There's so much outside waiting.
With you I can't go down.

All of my lifetime I tried to suit
People around me, conforming and good.
But all of my dreams have never come true.
Live didn't keep it's promise.

Suddenly, you are crossing my way.
You make my illusions melting away.
Finally open my eyes, and I see
There is a way to set me free.

Take me away from home!
You took my heart, I have no choice.




There's so much outside waiting.
With you I can't go down.
