Not Dark Yet lyrics

Shadows are fallin and I ve been here all day
It s too hot to sleep and time is runnin away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I ve still got the scars that the sun didn t heal
There s not even room enough to be anywhere
It s not dark yet but it s gettin there.

Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing there s been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
She put down in writin what was in her mind
I just don t see why I should even care
It s not dark yet but it s gettin there.

Well, I ve been to London and I been to gay Paris
I ve followed the river and I got to the sea
I ve been down on the bottom of the world full of lies
I ain t lookin for nothin in anyone s eyes
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
It s not dark yet but it s gettin there.

I was born here and I ll die here against my will
I know it looks like I m movin but I m standin still
Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
I can t even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don t even hear the murmur of a prayer
It s not dark yet but it s gettin there.
