lyrics

Before she got into her car and
Pulled out of the driveway
She pulled me in close
I thought she'd never let go
She said, "I don't think that
You really belong here
I think you need to get out of this place

Every single day it's the same routine
The same places, faces, the same old scene
And nothing's ever as exciting as it's cracked up to be
Maybe all I really want is a brand new me

I live in a big city
that feels like a very small town
Where all the people know your name
But pretend not to see you
When you're around

He cornered me at the bar
Put his hands round my waist
Said he was bored
Didn't even bother with names
Well it's not like he would've needed them anyway
He said "at this point, I'd go home with anything"

Oh how I watched you from afar
And wished this could be real
But you didn't want me
You wanted something to feel
And I can't help you
Can't even help myself
Cause I've been lonely too
And there's been no one else

I live in a big city
that feels like a very small town
Where all the people know your name
But pretend not to see you
When you're around

And I feel like just another cog in the wheel
All the time
Wish I had something real and pure and beautiful
I could call mine
I base my value on other people
But there's no one around
All of my imaginary lovers packed their things and drowned

I live in a big city
I live in a big city
that feels like a very small town
Where all the people know your name
But pretend not to see you
Pretend you don't

I live in a big city
That feels like a very small town
Where all the people know your name
But pretend not to see you
When you're around

She said, "I don't think that you really belong here
I think you need to get out of this place"
