I'm about to move to London
Leave the city I grew up in
Where I cut off all my hair
Apologies if I don't call much
Maybe I'm just having brunch somewhere
Pretending I'm not scared
But I'm scared
This time maybe
I won't have to run away
I'll make friends, won't let them
Ever slip away
A new home
When I'm alone
I'll still feel okay
In London
In London
Finally I'm starting over
Won't have to filter everything I say
My words like clay
Play out at pubs every night
Brush my teeth twice everyday
Pretend I'm not afraid
But I'm afraid
This time maybe
I won't have to run away
I'll make friends, won't let them
Ever slip away
A new home
When I'm alone
I'll still feel okay
In London
In London
Maybe I'll come back to visit
Even for a minute
And you'll recognize a tiny piece of me
This time maybe
I won't have to run away
I'll make friends, won't let them
Ever slip away
A new home
When I'm alone
I'll still feel okay
In London
In London
In London
In London
In London
