Gone Dark

Give me a call when you get to the empty part
Throw you a line, show you where to start
And take in the comfort that you won't get far
Hanging off all the nails you've brought

And don't get lost in the weight you've rung
It's in the dark that you must have gone

And final words always seem to be thought just right
You spit 'em out just to see how they look in sight
And nothing beats when your roost don't shine
You feel like a cheat winning some kind of prize

And don't get stuck in the ditch that's dug
It's in the dark that you must have gone

And now and again there's a face that I can't let go
See it when any chance there's a road that's known
But all that time gets took by the floods
And day-to-day just seems like enough

Now early morning's breaking soon
Shake off the dust when it's fighting through
It might be light that's coming in strong
But the dark ain't too far gone
No the dark ain't too far gone
Oh the dark ain't too far gone
