Lyrics Not Dark Yet - Tom Jones

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
