   Guidance… Preacher man send me a magic potient to cure my soul

   Shadows are falling and I’ve been here all day
   It’s too hot to sleep time is running away
   Feels 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
   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

   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 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 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.
