How could you know
that behind my eyes a sad girl cried
and how could you know
that i hurt so much inside
and how could you know
that i'm not the average girl
i'm carrying the weight of the world
yeah!
so can you get me outta here
take me away
we'll jump in the car
drive til the gas runs out and then walk so far
that we can't
see this place anymore
take a day off
give it a rest
so i can forget about this mess
if ya lighten up a little bit,
then i will be
over it
(music)
i'm playin the role
of the happy girl
but no one knows
inside i'm alone
but i would never let it show
i get everyday
too much work and not enough play
over and over
it's always the same
yeah!
but you can make everything ok...
take me away
we'll jump in the car
drive til the gas runs out and then walk so far
that we can't
see this place anymore
take a day off
give it a rest
so i can forget about this mess
if i lighten up a little bit,
then i will be
over it
over it
and when the world is closin' in
i can leave it all and just walk away
i can always start all over again
i am closer to a better day
take me away
we'll jump in the car
drive til the gas runs out and then walk so far
that we can't
see this place anymore
take a day off
give it a rest
so i can forget about this mess
if i lighten up a little bit,
then i will be
take me away
take me away
take me away
we'll jump in the car
drive til the gas runs out and then walk so far
that we can't
see this place anymore
take a day off
give it a rest
so i can forget about this mess
if i lighten up a little bit,
then i will be
if i lighten up a little bit,
then i will be
over it
over it
i am over it
