Tinderbox — Stiff Little Fingers

Then the rain came down And washed all hope away And your life's a train But it only goes one way What about the times when you were happy Balance them against the times you're sad Was there once a time when you felt lucky Or do you regret the times you've had

Chorus

Cos sometimes I feel I live in a tinderbox And just one spark Sets the whole thing off And sometimes I see The light die within me And the flame go out Leave me in the dark

When your world's a mess And imbecility gets you down When you can't accept The stupidity that's around

What about the times when you were focused What about the times you know who you are Do you find it hard containing your emotions Do you find it hard to just get out the door

I'm hangin' in you're hangin' on
