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 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 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 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 I think that I’m gonna move to town a capella      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 toooown

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le désir de quitter une vie urbaine qui semble superficielle et oppressante. L’auteur ressent une lassitude face à la superficialité des interactions en ville, où tout est axé sur le travail et la consommation. Il aspire à la tranquillité d’un petit village, où la vie est plus authentique et où les liens humains sont plus profonds. À travers cette quête de liberté, il souhaite se défaire des contraintes de la vie citadine pour retrouver un espace où il pourra respirer et se reconnecter à lui-même. Cette envie de changement traduit une recherche de paix intérieure, loin du tumulte et des lumières éclatantes de la ville.
