Indigo Girls - Closer to Fine
Author And Composer: Indigo Girls
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
|
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
|
'til I sank it
|
I'm crawling on your shores
|
And 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
|
Closer I am to fine
|
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
|
And 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
|
Closer I am to fine
|
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
|
And I went to the doctor
|
I went to the mountains
|
I looked to the children
|
I drank from the fountains
|
We go to the doctor
|
We go to the mountains
|
We look to the children
|
We drink from the fountain
|
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
|
