|
She dropped the gun and started running down the corridor
|
She found the exit to get out that department store
|
She reached full sprint when she hit the parking lot
|
She didn't see police, not even any rent-it-cops
|
She ran across the street and went behind the Applebee's
|
From there she could see those abandoned factories
|
Figured there's a good place for her to hide away
|
Knowing she could climb inside through the fire escape
|
At this point, still felt like a dream
|
In her head she could still hear the little kid's screams
|
Leaning up against the dumpster to find some breath
|
She could hear the sirens, now it's time to step
|
Running through the alleyway now relentless
|
Bobbing in between houses, hopping fences
|
Only two more blocks till the overpass
|
The adrenaline is rendering a panic attack
|
Maybe she should go back and explain it all
|
Maybe the best thing to do now is take that fall
|
Ain't no way that they won't understand
|
Daddy's little girl is never gonna hurt again
|
|
She can't believe that she's having this dilemma
|
Tryna find a reason that she shouldn't go surrender
|
She's a kid and a first time offender
|
Plus he had it coming, hell it's colder in December
|
Decided she would make it to the vacant warehouse
|
From there she could try to get her head to clear out
|
She needs a minute to sit and think
|
Some time to reflect on these events and let 'em sink
|
There's the building, it's empty she hopes to God
|
The fire escape is on the back near the loading dock
|
The next chapter to the happy ever after
|
Wrapped her little fingers round the cold metal ladder
|
Started climbing, that's when she heard the officer
|
"Millie turn yourself in now girl, come down from there"
|
She tried to look over her shoulder
|
Lost balance, fell four stories, it was over
|
