The String Cheese Incident - Tinder Box lyrics

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 its buried meaning 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 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 a 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 a start To expose the precious diamond Lying buried in your heart Do 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 transposed by: TheDreadfulGreat
