Lyrics for Mercury

And all that I've known to be of life And I am gentle You ran off with it all And I am faithful All that I felt within my arms And I am weightless You ran off with it all And I am speechless All that I've said to get it right And I am confident You ran off with it all And I am steadfast All that I thought, to be precise And I am consequence You ran off with it all And I am sorry And I am sorry All that I've known to be at peace And I am desperate You ran off with it all And I am restless All that I've known to be of love And I am gentle You ran off with it all And I am desperate All that I dream Where do you run, where do you run to? And I'm evidence All that I dream Where do you run, where do you run to? And I am faithless All that I dream Where do you run, where do you run to? Now I am messed up All that I dream Where do you run, where do you run to? Carrier, friend Where do you run?
