Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Move 'em, move 'em, there's no doubt
I'm all wrong, you're right
It's all the same with you
I'm too thin, too fat
You ask why
So why, so why?
On and on
And on and on
On and on
And on and on
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Round and round, here we go again
Same old start, same old end
Turn my head and turn back again
Same old stuff, never ends
Do this, do that
Can't deal, can't deal with that
I tune in, tune out
I've heard it all before
Hello, goodbye
Never asking me why
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
On and on
And on and on
On and on
And on and on
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Don't wanna grow up
I wanna get out
Hey, take me away
I want to shout out
Take me away, away
Away, away, away
Round and round, here we go again
Same old story, the same old end
Turn my head and turn back again
Same old stuff, never ends
The song 'Take Me Away' by Vidal Christina is a classic pop-punk anthem that speaks to the rebellious spirit of youth. It expresses the frustration and dissatisfaction with the mundane routine of everyday life, with lyrics that describe feeling trapped in a repetitive cycle of being told what to do, feeling wrong even when doing right, and never being satisfied with the way things are. The verses are filled with contradictions and criticisms aimed at society's expectations and norms, leaving the chorus to be a plea for escape from it all. The message of the song is clear: the singer is perpetually stuck in a loop of monotony and wants to break free from the constraints of the world around her.
The lyrics are centered around the theme of adolescence and the desire to escape it. It's a song that taps into the shirking of adulthood and the longing to stay in the reckless, carefree era of teenage life. The repeated "take me away" line could be interpreted as a metaphor for wanting to escape reality and live a different life, one where expectations and limitations don't exist. It's a common feeling among young people who often feel like they are living in a bubble, going to school, getting homework, and following the same routine with little to no excitement. The repetition of the lines "on and on" and "same old story, same old end" further emphasize the song's hopelessness and the need for escapism, urging the listener to join the singer in her plea for release.
