The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
World what have I done to make you frown on me to cast me endlessly
Into your variety what have I done what have I done
World what have I done to numb my brain with wine to lose all track of time
To know no peace of mind what have I done what have I done
I can get my head above the water I can get my head above the water
World what have I done to no one be a worth to never have no mirth
To live this hell on earth what have I done what have I done
World what have I done to walk these lonely streets wherever returns debit
Too hungry to eat what have I done what have I done
I can get my head above the water
