not dark yet

Shadows are falling and Ive been here all day

Its too hot to sleep and time is running away

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

Ive still got the scars that the sun didnt heal

Theres not even room enough to be anywhere

Its not dark yet but its getting there

Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain

Behind every beautiful thing theres been some kind of pain

She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind

She put down in writing what was in her mind

I just dont see why I should even care

Its not dark yet but its getting there

Well Ive been to London and Ive been to gay Paris

Ive followed the river and I got to the sea

Ive been down to the bottom of a world full of lies

I aint looking for nothing in anyones eyes

Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear

Its not dark yet but its getting there

I was born here and Ill die here against my will

I know it looks like Im moving but Im standing still

Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb

I cant even remember what it was I came here to get away from

Dont even hear a murmur of a prayer

And its not dark yet but its getting there

Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb

And its not dark yet but its getting there
