Lyrics

"Moving Out of Town"

All Rights Reserved. Words & Music by
Carly Emerick and Hoyt Emerick

Verse 1:
Lately, all I think about is leaving
This town has torn me inside out, I'm bleedin'

Lead In:
I'm gonna find my tribe
I'm gonna get out alive
Nothing or no one can make me stick around

Chorus:
I'm movin' out of town, in search of safer ground
Movin' out of town, where allies can be found

Verse 2:
Breakout when the moment's right you'll know it
You can live your life with pride and own it

Lead In 2:
I know I'm born this way
Yas queen! Today we slay!
Riding rainbows that lift me off the ground

Chorus:
I'm movin' out of town, in search of safer ground
Movin' out of town, where allies can be found
I'm movin' out of town, where love is all around
Movin' out of town, it’s time to claim my crown

(Guitar Solo) Yeah!

Post Chorus:
(He's really movin') Moving out of town!

Spoken Breakdown:
I've been living here too long where I don't belong
And I’m not gonna stay!

Lead In:
I'm gonna find my tribe
I'm gonna get out alive
Flying unicorns that lift me off the ground

Last Chorus:
I'm movin' out of town, where love is all around
Movin' out of town, it’s time to claim my crown

I’m moving out of, moving out of town
Moving out of, moving out of town
I’m moving out of, moving out of town
Moving out of, moving out of town
I’m moving out of town
(He's really movin') Moving out of town!

3-Track Remix EP + Official Cover Art Reveal

It is with great PRIDE 🏳️‍🌈 that we deliver to you our most anticipated release of the year. In the enduring tradition of gay anthems, our forthcoming single "Moving Out of Town" sits right up there with the best of them!

Hoyt and I poured our musical hearts into this composition. It tells our personal story of how we left our small town and moved to New York City to live our lives authentically. This song has been 30 years in the making and is like a page torn out of our diary. We hope its universal message of empowerment will help to lift the spirits of the LGBTQ+ community for years to come.

The lead vocals are sung passionately by Nick Bramlett. There are "Divine" influences here at play. The exciting rock guitars performed by Micah Blakeslee are simply out of this world! Matt Pop's outstanding music production is top-notch! His work here is worthy of an award for its sheer audio excellence. 🏆 The glorious cover art was hand-drawn with great care and illustrated by the magical Magenta Soulstar. We all worked hard as a team to make this extraordinary release possible. 

Moving Out of Town is dedicated to both Matthew Shepard (1976-1998) and Brandon Teena (1972-1993) and the thousands of others like them who never did make it out of town alive because of homophobia, transphobia, and hate.

The year was 2003. I was 30 years old and was excited to see Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle on the big screen! People would often tell me I looked like Cameron Diaz back then. It was a great film and a great time in my life. 

~ Big love, Carly's Angel
