Calum Scott - Not Dark Yet Lyrics

Shadows are falling, and I've been here all day

It's too hot to sleep, and time is running away

I feel like my soul has turned into steel

I've still got the scars, that the sun didn't let meheal

There's not even room enough, to be anywhere



It's not dark yet, but it's getting there



Well, my sense of humanity, is goin' 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



And 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 to the bottom, of a world full of lies

Ain't lookin' for nothing, in anyone's eyes

Sometimes my burden, is more than I can bear



And it's not dark yet, but it's getting there



I was born here, and I'll die here, against my will

Know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still

Every nerve in my body, is so naked and numb

Can't remember what it was, I came here to get away from

I don't even hear a murmur of a prayer



And it's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear

And it's not dark yet, but it's getting there
