A piece to try to inspire us to go outside and explore.
So take me away from here



Take me away from this stress!

This congestion, This mess.

Where people are too hard,

There's no room for a yard.

No place to scream.

Do you know what i mean?!!


So take me away from here.

far...far ... away

I want to go where the whippoorwill calls.

Feel the mist cascading off the waterfalls.

Feeling the grass underhand.

Reacquainting myself with the land.



I want to get out of this inhumane race.

Where we toss our junk all over the place

Where we've screwed ourselves out of greenness and lush

Where we all just want way too much



So take me away from here

far...far ... away

I want to go where the whippoorwill calls

Feel all the mist cascading off the waterfalls

Feeling the grass underhand

Reacquainting myself with the land.



I want to soar in the sky, do a wicked fly-by!

Run through the trees, as they dance in the breeze.

Canoe down a stream and swim in my dreams.



Within the wilderness you can find,

a serenity, a peace , within your mind.

It can calm and soothe your inner being,

As you set your gaze upon all worth seeing.



So take me away.
