New Medicine - Take Me Away - Official Music Video

Take Me Away was shot in Los Angeles directed by Dan Garland aka Danny Aces, guitar player of New Medicine. The video shows singer Jake Scherer in a dream state going in for a lobotomy to cure his depression and anxiety. Opening line "I need a break from my brain" is really what inspired this concept. We take mental health very seriously, this is meant to shed light on the inescapable thoughts some people have and are desperate to get a break from.

I need a break from my brain
From the doubt from the stress from the pain
This anxiety is killing me and keeping me awake

I need a break from my temper
It’s exhausting to live with the anger
It weighs me down and it holds me back
And ties me to an anchor…

Take me away
I’m not okay
I’m stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can’t escape
So take me away

I need break from my phone
I’m Jealous of these fuckers I don’t even know
I never win and comparison is nothing but a black hole

Take me away
Cause I’m not okay
I’m stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can’t escape
So take me away

Take me away in a car on a plane
Cause this whole world keeps fucking with my brain
Take me away please give it a rest I just need to take a break
From my brain…

Take me away
Cause I’m not okay
I’m stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can’t escape
So take me away

It's eerily comforting (in the most depressing way) to know there are so many other people that go through the same mental hell as me.

Lyrics -->
I need a break from my brain
From the doubt, from the stress, from the pain
This anxiety is killing me and keeping me awake
I need a break from my temper
It's exhausting to live with the anger
It weighs me down and it holds me back
And it ties me to an anchor
Take me away
'Cause I'm not okay
I'm stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can't escape
So take me away
Oh-oh, oh-oh
I need a break from my phone (yeah)
I'm jealous of these fuckers I don't even know (yeah)
Yeah, I never win and comparison is nothing but a blackhole
Take me away (take me away)
'Cause I'm not okay (I'm not okay)
I'm stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can't escape
So take me away
Take me away in a car, on a plane
This whole world keeps fucking with my brain
Take me away, please, give it a rest
I just need to take a break
From my brain
Take me away (take me away)
'Cause I'm not okay (I'm not okay)
I'm stuck at the bottom
In a prison of problems
That I can't escape
So take me away
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
I need a break from my brain

They say 'sad' songs are bad when you're struggling. But to be honest, this masterpiece just reminds me that I'm not the only one that feels like this.

It also helps me to release my emotions and tears so thankyou for making this🥰

Came from an IG story but stayed for the amazing music. Usually when I came for any song like that, only the banger is ok but this song from start to end is perfect 🎉

[tv.sanitationandhardware]

I too am broken 💔 brutally
but ur song lyrics is killing my pain ....
Thank you a lot 🙏

[danktankdragkings]

I adore the video directing. The little things like the earring still visible despite the surgical cap on the table, the drill bit loose enough to make an arc when it spun, the sponge heart only leaking when you touch it. Each of those lasted less than a second but each set the tone so well 10/10 you have a new fan in Mid-America
