I’m tryin’ to tell you
something ‘bout my life
Maybe give you 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, yeah.
Well the darkness has a
hunger that’s insatiable
And the lightness has a
call that’s hard to hear
And I wrap my fear around
me like a blanket
I sailed this ship of
safety ‘till I sank it
I’m crawling on your
shores
I went to the doctor
I went to the mountain
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
Closer I am to fine.
And I went to see the
doctor of philosophy
With a poster of Rasputin
and a beard down to his knees
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
And I stopped by a bar at
three 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 mountain
I looked to the children
I drank from the fountain
And we go to the doctor
We go to the mountains
We look to the children
We drink from the
fountains
Yeah, we go to the bible
We go through the workout
We read up on revival
We stand up for the
lookout
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
Closer I am to fine
Closer I am to fine
Closer I am to fine yeah
