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 / joy / strength

..has gone away

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

I hope monday will be a better day
