The Getaway
Embrace Freedom: Escape Troubles with The Red Thread's 'The Getaway'
Lyrics
Get away, let's leave today, let's get away!
Expressing a desire to escape or take a break from current circumstances.
So you say you've tried but just can't find the measure
Acknowledging efforts made but struggling to find a solution or gauge success.
People around you are giving you pressure
Feeling pressure from the people around, possibly societal expectations or influence.
Try to resist, all the bad things all around you
Encouraging resistance against negative influences in one's surroundings.
If you taste them, they will haunt you
Warning about the lasting impact of succumbing to negative experiences.
So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land
Invitation to a partner to join in leaving a troubled environment.
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can
Expressing confidence in the ability to escape and improve the situation.
Ah, get away, let's leave today, let's get away!
Reiteration of the desire to get away, emphasizing immediacy.
What ya, what ya, what ya, what ya know?
Possibly questioning the knowledge or awareness of the listener.
Watch all the stars, they lead in the right direction
Highlighting the guidance provided by stars for the right path.
Not to heed them is a bad reflection
Considering it negative not to follow the guidance given by stars.
They'll show you the way to what you have been seeking
Suggesting that following the stars leads to the fulfillment of desires.
To ignore them you're only cheating
Criticizing the act of ignoring guidance as a form of self-deception or dishonesty.
So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land
Repeating the invitation to escape from a troubled environment.
Why don't you get away? Get away
An urging to get away, emphasizing the need for a change.
Lay awake at night till the sun comes up in the morning
Describing a state of restlessness, staying awake until morning.
Never excited it all seems boring
Expressing a lack of excitement, finding everything mundane.
Make up your mind which way to go about it
Encouraging a decision on the direction to take in life.
Choose your road, just don't doubt it
Emphasizing the importance of making a choice and avoiding doubt.
So come, take me by the hand, we'll leave this troubled land
Reiteration of the invitation to leave a troubled situation with a partner.
I know we can. I know we can, I know we can, I know we can
Expressing continued confidence in the ability to escape and improve.
Ah. Get away, let's leave today, let's get away!
Repeating the desire to get away, underscoring the urgency.
Let's leave today, let's get away
Final emphasis on the immediate need to leave and escape.
