Closer to Fine (Live, 2009) Indigo Girls

[Verse 1]
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
'Cause it's only life after all, yeah

[Verse 2]
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 shore (Here we go)

[Chorus]
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
Yeah, but there's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line (Whoo)
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(Y'all sing it)
Closer I am to fine (All right), yeah
Coser I am to fine, yeah

[Verse 3]
Well, I went to see a 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
And he said he could see through me
And I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
Got my paper and I was free (Yeah)
