Lyrics for Death of an Heir of Sorrows

I wish I lived in the power and light I wish it wasn't Saturday night 'Cause I can't raise hell No, I can't raise hell for two I wish I had a thousand bucks I wish I was the Royal Trux But mostly I wish I wish I was with you When I was summoned to the phone I knew in my bones that you had died alone We'd never been promised there will be a tomorrow So let's just call it the death of an heir of sorrows The death of an heir of sorrows I have not avoided certainty It has always just eluded me I wish I knew I wish i knew for true I wish I had a rhinestone suit I wish I had a new pair of boots But mostly I wish I wish I was with you We'd never been promised there will be a tomorrow So let's just call it the death of an heir of sorrows The death of an heir of sorrows
