Tinder Box (The String Cheese Incident)

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
