Long live I

The devil done got me
Though the doctor tried to spare me
I'm living on candy now
Got down on my bad knee
To the drip-drip of i.v.
Won't somebody hold me as I die?
But if I die
Long live I
Long live I

Mamma would you miss me
Would you hover and caress me
Would you hang me from the christmas tree
And I leave something burning here
A signal-fire
The moon and stars
Will track my fall
Receive me
Love
Good love
Goodbye
Bye and bye
Long live I
Long live I

And I don't wanna be your shadow
And I don't wanna know your skin
Tell them not to dig too shallow
I want to sleep in sin
Cut the sun
And steal away a piece
Long live I
Long live I

Long live I
