Dancing In The Dark

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 evening
and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
even if we're just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
I check my look in the mirror
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire
you can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older
there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
come on baby this laugh's on me

there 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.
