Lyrics

Out there on my own, no one to drive me home
And the page is looking lonely today

Crying out for health, do I bring it on myself
I’m taking all the chances, I’d say

Can you tell me what to think?
Can you tell me what to say?
Shall I sing another tune
To get their souls engaged?

CHORUS

This is big news, in a small town
If I wear my heart upon my sleeve then you turn it all round
This is big news, in a small town

The media will choose, if mental health is news
But everyone’s a victim today

Getting what I want, forgetting what I need
It easy to be selfish they’d say

Do we walk another mile?
Do I give another smile?
Should I run away and hide?
Or give myself away?

CHORUS

This is big news, in a small town
If I wear my heart upon my sleeve then you turn it all round
This is big news, in a small town

If they make you feel like you’re odd
There’s no second chances
If they make you feel like a God
You can’t get away, when you’re walking
And then you are possessed
Your front-page news, it can get inside your head

Can you tell me what to think?
Can you tell me what to say?
Shall I sing another tune
To get their souls engaged?

CHORUS

This is big news, in a small town
If I wear my heart upon my sleeve then you turn it all round
This is big news, in a small town
If I wear my heart upon my sleeve then you turn it all round

This is big news, in a small town
If I wear my heart upon my sleeve then you turn it all round
This is big news, in a small town

In a small town
Big news in a small town
