it was over before he fell down
she heard them screaming run and don't look back
it was sometime after midnight
off the interstate across the tracks
she knew they'd catch her one day
like try and outrun the moon
they'd always be there right behind her
didn't matter how fast she moved
things had changed when her father died
they never saw eye to eye
cigarette smoke in the neon
there must've been a hundred shades of red
now she's running through the moonlight
her only plan is getting somewhere else
