I'm trying to tell you something 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

It's only life after all



Now 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 shores



I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains,

I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains

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 knee

He never did marry, or see a b-grade movie

He graded my performance, he said he could see through me

I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind

I got my paper and I was free



I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains,

I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains

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



*whistle*



I stopped by the bar at 3 am

To seek solace in a bottle, or possibly a friend

And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board

Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before

I went in seeking clarity





from the fountain



from the fountains



up for the lookout

There's more than one answer to these questions pointing me in a crooked line

The less I seek my source for some definitive

The closer I am to fine

The closer I am to fine

The closer I am to fine
