Away
Yelland Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Back to my room, smoking that gas and I think I'm immune
What's up with you? I cannot compute (Ayy)
Rolling that goo, I'm sick like the flu (Ayy)
I've been tryna' make things right
I've been tryna' make things right
Leave me 'lone, leave me 'lone
Go back home, wait where I go? (Yuh)
Sunset soon, I'm on the moon sipping that goon
Back to my room, smoking that gas and I think I'm immune
What's up with you? I cannot compute (Ayy)
Rolling that goo, I'm sick like the flu (Ayy)
Sick of this bullshit ayy, get me the fuck away
Life going day by day, I don't know what to say
I just want shit to change, but it'll stay the same
Please get up out my way, you take my life away
Sunset soon, I'm on the moon sipping that goon
Back to my room, smoking that gas and I think I'm immune
What's up with you? I cannot compute (Ayy)
Rolling that goo, I'm sick like the flu (Ayy)
I've been tryna' make things right
I've been tryna' make things right
The lyrics of "Away" by Yelland describe his attempt to escape from the world by getting high on drugs and alcohol. He starts off by saying that he is watching the sunset from the moon while sipping on goon, which is Australian slang for cheap wine. He then goes back to his room to smoke weed and says that he feels immune to the world's problems. He cannot comprehend what others are saying and is sick like the flu from rolling the substance.
The chorus consists of Yelland repeating that he is trying to make things right while also telling others to leave him alone. He is feeling isolated and wants to be on his own. However, he does not know where he is going or what to do. He repeats the same verse about watching the sunset from the moon, smoking gas, and feeling sick.
He ends the song by expressing his frustration with life and wanting to get away from everything. He does not know what to say, but he wants things to change even though he knows they won't. He asks people to leave him alone because they are taking away his life.
Overall, Yelland seems to be struggling with the pressures of life and is using drugs and alcohol to escape. He is feeling isolated and alone, but also frustrated with the world around him.
