Lyrics

I'm tryin' to tell you somethin' 'bout my life Maybe give me insight between black and white And the best thing you've ever done for me Is to help me take my life less seriously Cos it's only life after all Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable And lightness has a call that's hard to hear I wrap my fear around me like a blanket I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it I'm crawling on your shore I went to the doctor, I looked to the mountain We go to the children, I drink from the fountain There's more than one answer to these questions Pointing me in a crooked line And the less I seek my source for some definitive The closer I am to fine The closer I am to fine I went to see the Doctor of Philosophy With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knees Well he never did marry Or see a B grade movie He graded my performance And said he could see through me I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind Got my papers and i was free I went to the doctor, I looked to the mountain We go to the children, I drink from the fountain There's more than one answer to these questions Pointing me in a crooked line And the less I seek my source for some definitive The closer I am to fine, yeah The closer I am to fine, yeah I stopped by the bar at 3am To seek solace in a bottle Or possibly a friend Well I woke up with my headache Like my head against a board Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before I went in seeking clarity We went to the doctor, We go to the mountain We look to the children, I drank from the fountain We go to the bible and we go through the workout We read up on revival, and we stand up for the lookout Well there's more than one answer in these questions Pointing me in the crooked line And the less I seek my source for some definitive Closer I am to fine, yeah Closer I am to fine, yeah Closer I am to fine, yeah Closer I am to fine
