Not Dark Yet

Shadows are falling and I've been here all day It's too hot to sleep, 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 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 seems 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 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 It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
