about

A woman trying to escape the clutches of her abusive husband.

lyrics

I am a moving target
He is a loaded gun
When someone's constant trying to catch you in their sights
Well life ain't no fun
I stay in secret houses
He sometimes finds the one
Police have given me a codeword to repeat
The word is RUN

Where are you going
Where are you staying
I'm on the road tonight
I've got my notions
And I've got my spies
I'll see you in the morning light
And you'll stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me

I needed twenty stitches
Last time he swung his knife
I'll always be the mother of his kids
But I'm terrified of even trying to stay his wife
I am a body of evidence
Every bruise, break and burn
I'm often woken by a voice in the night
Screaming RUN

Where are you going
Where are you staying
I'm on the road tonight
I've got my notions
And I've got my spies
I'll see you in the morning light
And you'll stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me
Stay close to me

I'm not your woman
You're not my man
And we aren't part of God's great plan

Stupid woman
Don't you understand
I'm gonna find you any way I can
