[Verse 1]
I don't wanna drug, I don't wanna drink
I don't wanna feel, I don't wanna think
I don't wanna curse, I don't wanna pray
My singular desire is to take me away
[Verse 2]
The sky is too blue, the grass is too green
The water's too wet, my dad was too mean
The snow is too white, the clouds are too grey
Chill me out, steal my doubt, take me away
[Chorus]
Take me away, take me away
Pretty pretty pretty please, take me away
And if I never come back, hey, it's okay
Close my eyes, shut my mouth, take me away
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna dance, I don't wanna sing
I don't wanna ball, I don't wanna spring
Don't want your Sеptember, I don't want your may
Bottle mе, throttle me, take me away
[Verse 4]
I don't wanna laugh, I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna die
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay
Dust my broom, gimme room, take me away
[Verse 5]
I don't want no family, I don't want no friends
I don't want beginning, I don't want no ends
I don't wanna hear news of the day
Zip my lips, in the strip, take me away
[Chorus]
Take me away, take me away
Pretty pretty pretty please, take me away
And if I never come back, hey, it's okay
Close my eyes, shut my mouth, take me away
[Verse 6]
I don't wanna taste, I don't wanna smell
I don't want your heaven, I don't want your hell
I don't wanna watch no cable today
Cut me slack, take me back, take me away
[Verse 7]
I don't want no joy, I don't want no pain
I'm sick of my body and tired of my brain
I don't wanna hear the music today
Stop the shlock, clean my clock, take me away
[Verse 8]
I don't wanna love, I don't wanna hate
I don't wanna fish, don't wanna cut bait
There's only one thing that I wanna say
Take me, take me, take me, take me, take me away
[Verse 9]
Your smile is too sweet, your love is too strong (smile is too sweet)
I'm feeling so free, it's gotta be wrong
It don't cost a thing, it's too much to pay
Blow me up, throw me up, take me away
[Chorus]
Take me away, take me away
Pretty pretty pretty please, take me away
And if I never come back, hey, it's okay
Close my eyes, shut my mouth, take me away
[Outro]
Eeee, la la la la la la la la
Take me awayyeeeeeee, la la la la la la la la
Take me awayyeeeeeee, la la la la la la la la
