Escape from Say by Brother's Bear

I'll pack all my bags for the city,
to escape these embarrassing roots
I'll make a new life in the city
I'll pretend that I'm hiding from you,
I'll pretend that I'm hiding from you

I'll make the right choices of clothing
So it seems I'm not trying too hard
No I won't wash my hair in the mornings
And I'll be sure to hide my true heart
I'll be sure to hide my true heart

And I'll speak the right lingo in the markets
And I'll try hard to meet the right folks
I'll hide who i am to belong here
But I'll only be longing for love
Oh I'll only be longing for love

Love is hard to come by in the city
Cause everyone is here for themselves
Well I've bought a lie that tells me
My treasure is in finding myself
Oh my treasure is in finding myself

The city may reject me as a phony
Well, deep down I hope they do
Cause I don't belong in the city
Unless the city is where I've followed you
Lord, the city is where I've followed you
