Songfacts®:

• The first single from Man On The Run, this song received its world premiere on the September 9, 2014 episode of The Kevin & Bean Show. Gavin Rossdale told the two radio presenters: "It comes from the record Man On The Run, 'Man On The Run' being this concept, a cross section of all of our lives. Trying to fit everything in. Trying to be successful. Trying to be the best we can and the challenges that go with that, for guys and girls, and the only way out is through being the uplifting concepts of the way I try and do it."
• Rossdale explained to The Pulse of Radio about the approach he took to the song's subject matter. "It's obviously an old tenet, you know, the only way out is through, and I just think that for everybody that's a comforting thought," he said. "It's an uplifting song about a difficult subject, and although I've always really liked to write about dark things, I've always liked to have an escape hatch, a trap door, the way out, so it was fun to do a song that is really quite uplifting."
