Closer To Fine Lyrics

    I'm trying to tell you something about 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
    Yeah

    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 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 less i seek my source)
    The closer i am to fine
    The 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 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 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
    The less i seek my source for some definitive
    (the less i seek my source)
    The closer i am to fine
    The closer i am to fine

    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
    I looked to the children, i drank from the fountains
    Yeah 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 and we stand 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 less i seek my source)
    The closer i am to fine
    The closer i am to fine
    The closer i am to fine
