Testo Not Dark Yet

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
