Outrun The Dawn

I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much while making a song. And knowing the story it’s built on? That made it even harder.
See if you can make it to the end without feeling anything.

Earthgirl is about a woman who flees to a small town, carrying the unbearable weight of a past she can’t speak aloud. To outsiders, she seems strange—always tense, private, off-kilter. But what they’re seeing is alienation—an emotional exile she’s built around herself to survive. Underneath it all, she’s running from a relationship marked by stalking, rape, and attempted murder, and the heartbreak of secretly terminating a pregnancy to save her own life and future —on the night of a full moon.

Lyrics:

You bash at the piñata of my mind,
To get the goodies deep inside.
The truth was always hard to find.
considering I always lied.

I'm not an Earthgirl.
I'm not an Earthgirl.
I'm not a nice girl.

I dry my laundry in the rain.
I look away to hide my stain.
You say that everyone's the same.
But no one understands my pain.

They say I came from sky and flame.
That I arrived without a name.
I spoke in rhymes, out of tune.
And wept beneath a cruel moon.

I'm not an Earthgirl.
I'm not an Earthgirl.
An outta this world girl.

The gravity bends my mind,
and the past I try to hide.
My shoes are stitched with luck and wine.
Still I walk, and try to fly.

My brains a box of steel,
It hums to keep me sealed.
I dream in static, sharp and raw,
and my skin starts to crawl.

I'm not an Earthgirl.
I'm not an Earthgirl.

They say I crashed from sky and shame.
A spark that never learned her name.
I blink too slow, I breathe too soon.
I broke my heart beneath the moon.

And Earth is loud and it shakes my bones, and moves too slow.
But I grow limbs that bend.
And I’m not breaking. 
Not again.

I’m not an Earthgirl.
Still not an Earthgirl.
Still not an Earthgirl.

Lyrics: 
There is no time, you gotta run for your life, for your life 
Between these lines, pedal on down, whoa, whoa, 
The night is gone, the deed is done, whoa, whoa, 
Interstate run, feel my blood against the gun, 

You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
(vocal ad lib) 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 

You’ve got lights in your eyes, this is the only life you know, 
And if it dies, up in smoke, whoa, whoa, 
You won’t feel much, oh, oh, speed up, whoa, whoa 

You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
(vocal ad lib) 
Run for your love, your love, your love, 

You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
You gotta run for your love, run for your love 
You gotta run for your love, your love, your love, 
(vocal ad lib)
