And I beg you please for some room just to breathe under the weather now... under the weather now... so I said to the Devil, "Go ahead, come down to earth with a shovel and stick into the dirt and dig my grave I'm not afraid though I scream and shout pout wriggle and writhe about, I can control life not on hold."

Oh, being self righteous might get you a kiss, but never behave like your head is a cave you know, my eyes are weak and clouded Why don't we talk about it?

(you) Breathe fire into my eyes I say, "Good bye." I say, "Good bye
