I'm trying to tell you something about my life
|
Maybe give me insight between black and white
|
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
|
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
|
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it, I'm crawling on your shore.
|
|
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
|
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
|
There's more than one answer to these questions
|
pointing me in crooked line
|
The less I seek my source for some definitive
|
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, 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 fountain
|
There's more than one answer to these questions
|
pointing me in crooked line
|
The less I seek my source for some definitive
|
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
|
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.
|
|
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
|
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountain
|
There's more than one answer to these questions
|
pointing me in crooked line
|
The less I seek my source for some definitive
|
The closer I am to fine.

|
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

The less I seek my source for some definitive

The closer I am to fine
