Kjetil Nernes - I Run lyrics

I run and I run From horrid dreams In its gelid sooth Under the mattress, under the sheets I ran and I ran from you Oh, have mercy on me I wrestled the deuce for you Oh, have mercy on me And I faltered because of you Oh, have mercy on me I woke to the weight of sin Oh, have mercy on me I run and I run From aurorae So heavy and grey They turn to pitch-black afterlife I run and I run Too crooked to tell the truth Too warped to plead for mercy Knees too weak to kneel in prayer I run and I run From marbled masks With hollow eyes Crying diamonds I ran and I ran from you Oh, have mercy on me I wrestled the deuce for you Oh, have mercy on me And I faltered because of you Oh, have mercy on me I woke to the weight of sin Oh mercy on you
