Lyrics Matthew West

Matthew West

Get Away

I just can't take it anymore

Your tricks have fooled me for the last time

You know I've had it up to here

With the way you bring me down, down

You're wreaking havoc on my world

You're calling question to my sanity

But I'm not gonna let you get the best of me

Not anymore, anymore

So here I go, watch me run

A million miles under the sun

That's what I'll do if that's what it takes

To get away

I gotta get away

I gotta get away

I gotta get away

I gotta get away

You try to steal away our kids

You try to tear apart our families

You bring your lies into our towns

And watch our morals tumble down

We are a city on the edge

We are a world that needs a remedy

But we're still the nation under God

And it's time we take a stand

We gotta get away

We gotta get away

We gotta get away

We gotta get away

Give us your strength to run from evil

Lord, lead the way

Lead us into a better day

Give us hope

Give us faith

Help us, oh Lord, to get away

Hear our cry everyday

Help us, oh Lord, to get away

Here I go

Watch me run

A million miles under the sun

That's what I'll do

If that's what it takes to get away
