Lyrics
A face in the crowd, a man in the mirror. Don't you look down, it can't be clearer. Don't you look back now it's only begun. You'b got nowhere to run.
Run, Run, Run. Oh Run, Run, Run. Oh Run, Run, Run, Run.
Two hearts became one when your paths collided. Who would've know your heart would be slighted. The hounds on your scent now, the man on your tail. Annie get your gun.
Gun, Gun, Gun. Oh gun, gun, gun. Oh gun, gun, gun, gun.
A cat on the prowl lurks from out of the shadows. Bang, smoke, and a scream from out of the hallows. Back into the darkness you quickly recede. For now your battles won.
Won, won, won, Oh won, won, won. Oh won, won, won, won.
Won, Won, Gun, gun, run RUN!
