Bad night
Woke in a deep depression
So bleak
Life is in a sad recession
Too many memories
Too many loved ones
Gone
Need to write myself out of it today
What do you say?
Guess I’m just human
And I’ll get by
I suppose
Remember it is true
Loyalty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
The right words make you listen
In this cruel world
Any change of values I have got to write it down
They are destroying the Welfare State
I have got to write it down
It must not be forgotten
As long as I write it down
Bad day
Dealing with this depression
So bleak
Life is in a sad recession
Too many memories
Too many mistakes
Made
Need to write myself out of it today
What do you say?
Guess I’m just human
And I’ll get by
I suppose
Remember it is true
Honesty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
The right words make you listen
In this cruel world
Any change of values I have got to write it down
They are destroying Palestine
I have got to write it down
It must not be forgotten
As long as I write it down
Bad month
Coping with this depression
So bleak
Life is in a sad recession
Too many memories
Too many bridges
Burned
Need to write myself out of it today
What do you say?
Guess I’m just human
And I’ll get by
I suppose
Remember it is true
Dignity is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
The right words make you listen
In this cruel world
Any change of values I have got to write it down
They are destroying the working class
I have got to write it down
It must not be forgotten
As long as I write it down
Bad year
Struggling with this depression
So bleak
Life is in a sad recession
Too many memories
Too many lovers
Lost
Need to write myself out of it today
What do you say?
Guess I’m just human
And I’ll get by
I suppose
Remember it is true
Sanctity is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
The right words make you listen
In this cruel world
Any change of values I have got to write it down
They are destroying the news agenda
I have got to write it down
It must not be forgotten
As long as I write it down
