Take Me Away Lyrics

Watching once more as the world passes me by
Surrounded but still all alone, am I living a lie?

Empty faces, empty eyes are staring right through me
No regrets, but I still ask why
Take me away, to a peace I've never known

This is the price I've payed and it's taking it's toll
Can it be too much to ask for the time it stole?
Empty faces, empty eyes are staring right through me
No regrets, but I still ask why

Take me away, to a peace I've never known
Take me away, where my life can be my own

I only wish that I had stayed
I only wish that I had known

Take me away, to a peace I've never known
Take me away, then my life can be my own, where my life can be my own
Take me away, take me away

I'm really unsure, but I think it is about someone who can't live his life like he wants to and he wish he can change his life.

I think that it's about a person that did something with consquences. "This is the price I've payed and it's taking it's toll." Then not regretting it, but wishing that they could move on to a life that is without those consequences. "No regrets but I still ask why."

kinda sounds like King Claudius in William Shakespeare's "Hamlet;" how he killed his brother and he didn't regret that he had killed someone but toward the end how he started feeling guilty.

Can it be too much to ask for the time it stole?

I think it's talking about the time they spent being high? I know people who done drugs and say it was a total waste of their time that could have been spent in better ways, but for some reason I guess howard doesn't regret...

My Opinion

Living with consequences drawn from love and trying to get over losing it but not regretting any of the time he had with her or something he did. Requiring and desiring the release of love. Missing or despising love deeply.
