[Verse 1]
Well, shadows are falling and I've been here all day
Well, 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
Lot is not done yet, but it's getting there
[Verse 2]
Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain
Just bein' in the same country as her is makin' mе blue
I got nothing left over from thе love that we knew
A love that I know, that I never can share
Lot is not done yet, but it's getting there
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Feel like my eyes are two pieces of broken glass
Well, I'm standing in the shadows waiting for the parade to pass
Feel like the hand of fate has jabbed its finger in my eye
I'm in the land of the lost where dreams come to die
Sometimes my burdens seem more than I can bear
Lord, it's not dark yet, but it's getting there
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Well, I can close my eyes and I see her from such a long ways off
Her lips were so tender, her skin was so soft
I've gone too far down life's beaten track
And I'm praying the master will guide me back
The violets are fadin' and the trees are bare
Lord, it's not dark yet, but it's getting there
