Cover art for Take Me Away lyrics by Blue Öyster Cult

definatly without a doubt about aliens.

Strange shapes light up the night I've never seen 'em though I hope I might Don't ask if they are real The men in black, their lips are sealed

the first half means that the singer would like to see aliens. The second half means that the goverment wont talk about aliens.

Fantasy fills my mind To leave this place before my time Release myself from earthly care My dream may be your nightmare

the singer fantasizes about meeting an ET, and leaving earth before he dies. Thogh he dreams of this, it may be your night mare.

turn my hopes up to the sky I'd like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away Come on take me away

he would like to know before he dieswether there are aliens or not. HE also thinks that the aliens would probobly erase his memory any way. He wants them to take him away.

then, he and his girlfriend wish on the starts to meet ETs.

good song, obvious meaning.
