The Cardigans Black Letter Day song lyrics

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 a 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 a 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
