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 as i could, as long as i should, to find comfort here
slept as long as 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...
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
