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.
