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 Paris.
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.
(Instrumental)
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.
