Here in the city the measure is frozen
Billboards are screaming nothing is real
In every small town there´s air you can breathe in
It´s not about the money or fast food on wheels

The lights are too bright for my eyes
Inside there´s a feeling that rings like a bell
I´ve had enough and I long for the silence
This place hasn´t treated me well

I have decided to leave this city
These buildings and people bring me down
I have decided to leave this city
I think that I´m gonna move to town

Here in the city no one´s connected
Careers are controlling everyone´s lives
In every small town there´s barely possession
Mothers aren´t burdens or grandfathers´ wives

I won´t make a sound
I won´t follow this merry-go-around
That keeps going round with or without
Me I´m leaving I´m leaving I´m leaving

Tomorrow I´ll make my way out of the city
Tomorrow I´ll hop on a train or a bus
I´ll never stop running away from cities
Where girls don´t leave husbands for boys like us
