lately, i've been thinking a lot about my life in general. so many questions, so little answers.
i need a light somewhere, something to jumpstart things. and who better to say all this than The Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen:
I get up in the eveningand I ain't got nothing to sayI come home in the morningI go to bed feeling the same wayI ain't nothing but tiredMan I'm just tired and bored with myselfHey there baby, I could use just a little helpYou can't start a fireYou can't start a fire without a sparkThis gun's for hireeven if we're just dancing in the darkMessage keeps getting clearerRadio's on and I'm moving 'round the placeI check my look in the mirrorI wanna change my clothes, my hair, my faceMan I ain't getting nowhereI'm just living in a dump like thisThere's something happening somewherebaby I just know that there isYou can't start a fireyou can't start a fire without a sparkThis gun's for hireeven if we're just dancing in the darkYou sit around getting olderthere's a joke here somewhere and it's on meI'll shake this world off my shoulderscome on baby this laugh's on methere are two ironies to this song. the first is that Springsteen wrote this just after his manager had demanded for a hit single, in which later the song turned out to be. the second is that the video for this song launched the career of a young Courteney Cox, who was featured as a fan dancing with The Boss on-stage.
in writing this, maybe some of that Springsteen spark will rub off on me.
