Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying

Ooh get me away from here I'm dying

Play me a song to set me free

Nobody writes them like they used to

So it may as well be me

Here on my own now after hours

Here on my own now on a bus

Think of it this way

We could either be successful or be us

With our winning smiles and us

With our catchy tunes oh us

Now we're photogenic

You know we don't stand a chance

Oh I'll settle down with some old story

About a boy who's just like me

Thought there was love in everything and everyone

You're so naive

They always reach a sorry ending

They always get it in the end

Still it was worth it

As I turned the pages solemnly and then

With a winning smile the boy

With naivety succeeds

At the final moment I cried

I always cry at endings

Oh that wasn't what I meant to say at all

From where I'm sitting rain

Falling upon the lonely tenement

Has set my mind to wander

Into the windows of my lovers

They never know unless I write

This is no declaration I just thought I'd let you know goodbye

Said the hero in the story

It is mightier than swords

I could kill you sure

But I could only make you cry with these words

I'll make you cry with these words

Oh get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Oh I'm dying

Oh get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Get me away I'm dying

Oh I'm dying

Oh I'm dying
