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
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
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
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

Now when your mother sends back all your invitations
And your father to your sister he explains
That you're tired of yourself and all of your creation...
Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore.
It's gettin' dark, too dark for me to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.

Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
And i'm back in the rain, oh, oh,
And you are on dry land.
You made it there so...
I'm a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I'll say goodbye to Colorado
Where I was born and partly raised
Your mother says I'm a stra...
There must be some way outta here

There's too much confusion

Business men they drink my wine

So I remember ev’ry face
Of ev’ry man who put me here
I see my light come shining
