Closer to Fine

I'm trying to tell you something 'bout my life

Maybe give me insight between black and white

And the best thing you ever done for me

Is to help me take my life less seriously

It's only life after all, yeah

Well, darkness has a hunger that's insatiable

And lightness has a call that's hard to hear

And 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

[01:54.95]And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

[01:59.66][03:02.78]I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains

[02:04.16][03:27.16]There's more than one answer to these questions

[02:08.41][03:31.37]Pointing me in a crooked line

[02:11.97][03:33.90]And the less I seek my source for some definitive (The less I seek my source)

[02:15.85][03:48.56]Closer I am to fine, yeah

And 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

Got my paper and I was free

I stopped by the bar at 3 A.M.

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

And I went in seeking clarity

I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains

We go to the doctor, we go to the mountains

We look to the children, we drink from the fountain

Yeah, we go to the Bible, we go through the workout

We read up on revival, we stand up for the lookout

Closer I am to fine
