Black letter day

I did all that I should, well all that I could
But will I be clean
I did all that I should, well all that I could
But it isn't me

All my strength is dead and gone

Slept as long I could, as long as I should
To find comfort here
Slept as long I could, as long as I should
But I still have fear

All my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter day
All the fun has gone away
Black letter day
All the joy has gone away
Black letter day
All my strength has gone away
Black letter day

I drank all that I could, much more than I should
In simple despair
I drank all that I could, much more than I should
To find someone there

All my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter day
All the fun has gone away
Black letter day
All the joy has gone away
Black letter day
All my strength has gone away
Black letter day

Once upon a time there was a scientist with the nose made of silver
He found that there were far too hurtless days a year that one could do without
He called them black letter days and the rest is silence

Well, all my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter day
All the fun has gone away
Black letter day
All the joy has gone away
Black letter day
All my strength has gone away
Black letter day

I hope monday will be a better day
