Shadows are falling and I`ve been here all day
It`s too hot to sleep and time is running 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 getting 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 writing what was in her mind
I just don`t see why I should even care
It`s not dark yet, but it`s getting there
Well, I`ve been to London and I`ve been to gay Paree
I`ve followed the river and I got to the sea
I`ve been down on the bottom of a world full of lies
I ain`t looking for nothing in anyone`s eyes
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
It`s not dark yet, but it`s getting there
I was born here and I`ll die here against my will
I know it looks like I`m moving, but I`m standing still
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb
I can`t even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don`t even hear a murmur of a prayer
It`s not dark yet, but it`s getting there.
