NICOLA
You think you know me
I don't even know me
I'd screw my head off
And lay it at your feet
So you can tell me please
What's on my mind
My curiosity
My sweet complexity
You crush my spirit and you kill my vanity
And I run, run, run, run
From what I feel inside
If I stay here
I'll be nothing
I'll be no-one
So don't hold me back
Just let me go
It's safe in the city
So safe in the city
I don't wanna bite the hand that feeds me
Send me on a rocket to the moon
The city lights and traffic jams excite me
Maybe I've grown up much too soon
NICOLA-----------------------ENSEMBLE
If I stay here------------------If I stay here
I'll be nothing-----------------Nothing
I'll be no one------------------No one
So don't hold me back--------Don't hold me back
Just let me go-----------------Just let me go
It's safe in the city...

Safe in the city

You crush my spirit and you kill my vanity
And I run, run, run, run
From what I feel inside
If I stay here

Just let me go
It's safe in the city
So safe in the city
I don't wanna bite the hand that feeds me
Send me on a rocket to the moon
The city lights and traffic jams excite me
Maybe I've grown up much too soon
