“I’ve been Down so Long, that the Tears Roll up my Cheek”

(With thanks to Bobby Darin, and a shout out to Martin Yarbrough)

Burned out

Bone weary

Run down

Out of steam

Done out

Done in

Enervated

Lost my edge

Worn out

Worn through

Gone stale

Out of tune

Dragged down

Dead-tired

Overstressed

Lost my nerve
