Run

While I powder my nose

He will powder his guns

And if I try to get close

He is already gone

I don't know where he's going

I don't know where he's been

But he is restless at night

‘Cause he has horrible dreams

So we lay in the dark

Cause we've got nothing to say

Just the beating of hearts

Like two drums in the grey

I don't know what we're doing

I don't know what we've done

But the fire is coming

So I think we should run

I think we should run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

While I put on my shoes

He will button his coat

And we will step outside

Checking out the coast is clear

On both sides

‘Cause we don't wanna be seen

Oh this is suicide

But you can't see the ropes

And I won't tell my mother

It's better she don't know

And he won't tell his folks

Cause they're already ghosts

So we'll just keep each other

As safe as we can

Until we reach the border

Until we make our plan

To run, run, run, run

To run, run, run, run

To run, run, run, run

Will you stay with me my love?

For another day

Cause I don't want to be alone

When I'm in this state

Will you stay with me my love?

Till we're old and grey

I don't wanna be alone

When these bones decay

Run, run, run, run

Oh run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

Ooh and run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run
