Why can't I get a break (v2)

[Verse 1] Tuesday afternoon, it’s raining I’m just sitting here complaining Head spinning round and round And it’s driving me insane It’s the second time this month That my plans have been sunk by the rain It’s falling again Seems all I do is get drunk My life is a goddamn mess And I’m suffering from stress It’s getting me down, down, down Oh, but you couldn’t care less [Chorus] Why can’t I get a break? For God’s sake This is as much as I can take Why can’t I get a goddamn break this year? [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] Work is becoming such a chore Sitting in my office, bored “Suicide”—the easy way out But I can’t take it anymore Sometimes I feel just like a clown Happy outside, inside so down Depression’s dragging me slowly Into a lonely pit of despair I’m falling down Could it be I’m slightly mad? Well, I’m feeling oh so sad Lock me up, throw away the key For eternity—yeah, that’s too bad [Chorus] Why can’t I get a break? For God’s sake This is as much as I can take Why can’t I get a goddamn break this year? [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 3] Need a strong drink to get me through To escape the shambles of my life Better make it two I see the light ahead of me Now there’s one thing left to do I’ve got to walk into the light I cannot continue with my fight I no longer wish to live Live in this eternal night Sitting high above the world below My pain left behind me, and I know Eternity awaits me And peace is mine at last I… got a break… at last
