Get away, let's leave today
Let's get away

So you say you tried
But you just can't find the pleasure
People around you givin' you pressure
Try to resist all the hurt that's all around you
If you taste it, it will haunt you

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can
I know we can, I know we can
Get away, let's leave today
Let's get away

What you know? What you know?
Watch for the signs
That lead in the right direction
Not to heed them is a bad reflection

They'll show you the way
Into what you have been seeking
To ignore them, you're only cheating

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can get away, get away

Lay awake every night
Till the sun comes up in the morning
Nothing exciting, it all seems boring
Make up your mind, which way to go about it
To your road, you just don't doubt it

So come, take me by the hand
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can
I know we can, I know we can

Get away, let's leave today
Let's get away, let's leave today
Let's get away, let's get away
Let's leave today, let's get away

Get away, leave today
Get away, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Get away, leave today
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah
