“Get Away” is a slow, emotional ballad about working out if you want to stay in a relationship or not.
The song details Jessie thinking about why she is with her partner, as she knows she loves him, but she’s not sure what it is. Although she comes to realise he’s not the right person for her, and...
[Verse 1]
Why does it feel like I'm living through ya?
Tell me why I'm addicted to ya
'Cause I don't even know
Chasin' this 'cause we think we want it
But we can't breathe 'cause the air is toxic
So tell me where to go
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a thin, thin line
To admit or deny, yeah, yeah
Ours is a different kind of love
It used to be saving us
Now it's just breaking us
It's not about just giving up
We know we're not safe enough
[Chorus]
Get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away, get away-y-y
Get away, get away, get away (Mm)
[Verse 2]
Do I stay 'cause you say you need me?
I crave it more when it isn't easy
How am I supposed to grow? (Mm, huh)
It won't fix 'cause I say I love you
I need to show you but I don't know how to
How am I supposed to grow? (Mm)
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a thin, thin line
To admit or deny, yeah, yeah
Ours is a different kind of love
It used to be saving us
Now it's just breaking us
It's not about just giving up
We know we're not safe enough
[Chorus]
Get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away, get away-y-y
Get away, get away, get away (Mm)
Get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away, get away-y-y
Get away, get away, get away (Mm)
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Get away, ooh
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Ours is a different kind of love
It used to be saving us
Now it's just breaking us
It's not about just giving up
We know we're not safe, safe
Ours is a different kind of love
It used to be saving us
Now it's just breakin' us
It's not about just givin' up, huh
We know we're not safe enough
[Outro]
Get away, get away, get away
Get away, get away
