Tinder Box

Marching down to City Hall, we join the light parade

Learning to untie the knot, the dawn of brighter days

In the midnight darkest dreams, the rivers will run free

All this time spent digging just to find it's buried in me

Can you hear the siren’s song

When you lie awake at night

Do you hear the siren’s song

Dream of love that’s lost and gone

You see the General on the street, he’s begging for some change

Plants his heels into the ground in this war against the sane

At home you see the banker, he’s on his way to work

Throws his change at the beggar, who’s to say what they are worth

Do they hear the siren’s song

When they lie awake at night

Do they hear the siren’s song

Dream of love that’s lost and gone

I hear her whisper in my ear, an old familiar tune

Reminding me to stay awake, the box might open soon

Mining for the deepest gems, you might just find you’ll start

To expose the precious diamond, lying buried in your heart

Do they hear the siren’s song

When they lie awake at night

Do they hear the siren’s song

Dream of love that’s lost and gone

Do they hear the siren’s song

When they lie awake at night

Do they hear the siren’s song

Dream of love that’s lost and gone
